Take Back Your Life!

Please stop laughing!

August 17, 2009 by Giulietta Nardone

Hey friends,

Am looking forward to tomorrow’s “Step Into Your Greatness & Make Your Own Economy” life shop.  If our society would focus on our greatness instead of our weakness, what an amazing world this would be.

Do you ever recall being encouraged at any time in your school or work life trajectory to find and build on your greatness? I’ve been racking my brain trying to think of an example and the closest would have been in my college speech class. The professor loved my zany, funny speeches and always introduced me as someone who would make you roll with laughter in the aisles.

Other than that, it seems I had to “improve” upon some perceived deficiency. In third grade I actually had to stand in the corner because I wouldn’t stop laughing and wouldn’t stop making the kids around me laugh. My teacher commanded to me, “Please stop laughing or you’ll stand the corner!”

Why is laughter thought of as disruptive? Why can’t we learn through laughter? Why not use it as a focal point instead of a punishment point?

I’d love to know times in your life, when someone in authority focused on your greatness.

Muse thx,

Giulietta
