    Crack a joke in your next few conversations to test your comfort level. Observe people's reactions to see if they laughed or seemed annoyed. Based on their response, calibrate whether you can tell more jokes or need to ease back and ask safer questions to build more comfort. The goal is to establish enough comfort to ask deeper questions and get to know people better.

    Module 8 Exercise

    Comfort

    Crack and Calibrate

    If you have been continuously practicing these exercises so far, Keep up the good
    work. So far you have understood how to enter in conversations and stay in them.
    You now have the courage to expose yourself to conversations.

    In this exercise, I need you to crack a joke. In the next few conversations, you
    expose yourself to crack a joke and observe the room. Did people laugh? Or are
    they shooting you daggers? Understand where you are at and calibrate upwards or
    downwards.

    Tips -
    • Most jokes hit home when you say something contextual and time it
    appropriately
    • Use puns (not to an extent where they are annoying)

    If people laughed, congratulations, you have established comfort. Now use this to
    ask deeper rooted questions, get to know people more. If they did not, and you can
    see that, figure out a way to ease the discomfort. Ask safer questions. Calibrate
    downwards.

    All the best, Sher!
