The "Laugh‑Lift" Technique (Step‑by‑Step)
1. Start with a smile: Each morning, write one funny observation about your day. 2. Inject levity into tasks: While working, set a timer to pause every 45 minutes and share a witty one‑liner with yourself or a colleague. 3.

Celebrate with chuckles: End the day by recalling three moments that made you laugh, however small.
