Author’s Note:


Tomorrow, January 30th, marks a significant anniversary for my wife and I, but not one worth celebrating in the wildest stretch of our imaginations. Thus, I wanted to share a very personal note as proof laughter is -- without a doubt -- the best medicine...

Laugh Out Loud was written from a simple belief: that laughter can help us survive moments we never imagined facing.

That belief became deeply personal during one of the hardest seasons of my life. My wife endured a long, brutal medical battle stricken with Guillain-Barre` Syndrome (GBS) that tested every ounce of strength we had. There were days when fear felt overwhelming, and outcomes were uncertain. Through it all, we made a quiet promise to each other — no matter how heavy things became, we would find a way to laugh.

Not because anything was funny. But because laughter reminded us we were still here.

Out of that spirit came Chuckles™ (below), a small symbol born from Laugh Out Loud. Chuckles isn’t about ignoring pain or pretending life is easy. It’s about choosing light when darkness feels close and remembering that joy can still exist — even in fragments — during the hardest moments.

If this book brings you a smile, a pause, or a moment of relief when you need it most, then it has done exactly what it was meant to do.

If you liked James Clear’s Atomic Habits or Mark Manson’s The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck, you will love Laugh Out Loud; it provides the secret ingredient in life for coping and happiness that money can’t buy. Humanity is in a state of crisis and despair on a global scale. Despots are everywhere we turn, sowing and spewing their evil. Say nothing of the day-to-day stressors in life that we face.

As of the end of 2022, there were 85,253 self-help books available; however, only 5 percent of these books are scientifically tested to determine if the advice works. The self-help/improvement field addresses everything from attitude adjustment to post-partum depression to zeal wellness. The basis of Laugh Out Loud is laughter, which has proven – repeatedly – to work! The benefits of laughing are significant, as reported by the Mayo Clinic and detailed in the American Journal of Medical Sciences, aiding in stress management and depression relief, fighting allergies, cancer, diabetes, and heart disease, and boosting the immune system.

In Laugh Out Loud, I am giving you a tool, a guide, to use in your daily life so, at a minimum, you are provided a mere glimmer of hope, a distraction, a respite, something to grasp with both hands and cherish, to promote your wellbeing for the better, and ease your mind in these critically troubling times in our lifetime. Laugh Out Loud may not be a way out, but it is a way to cope if practiced. I promise that following the five steps in this guide will bring a smile to your face, a ray of sunshine to your heart, and at least a moment (if not several) of happiness to your life.

Happiness can be fleeting; however, laughter can be infectious. Declared life’s best medicine; get your prescription now! Why wait?
