While I generally think that laughter is the best thing to do as part of your daily routine, sometimes the best advice is don’t laugh.

When is that, you may ask?

If your kids say something they shouldn’t say in public.

If a co-worker seriously says something ridiculous (and they have no idea how crazy it is).

If you will pull a muscle, or already have…after the first big workout of the season.

If you won’t be able to stop.

So many more times, when it is definitely not appropriate, but the other can also be true. When you don”t laugh and someone was kidding around, telling a joke, working the room, on stage…so, use your best judgement and try to make it work.
