let’s not forget the importance of
taking time to appreciate laughter in the

we can create a lighter atmosphere that encourages
laughter.
Think about your work environment for a
moment. Did you have a chance to laugh today?

a walk, or read a book, we should also remember
that it’s OK to laugh, and to share
laughter with our colleagues and co-workers.
