Being humorous about your shortcomings is what makes you more human according to Marcus. Humour opens the door of communication in even the tensest of settings. Whether on the improv stage or the stage of global politics, the truly great leaders in life take a moment to laugh at themselves.
“If you’re incapable of finding yourself funny, or the things you do, amusing, or acknowledging that you are capable of being laughable, then a piece of your humanity is missing.”
