To develop humor and comedy:
- You are the target for your humor - bad things that happen to you are always funny: bad things that happen to the audience are never funny
- Keep it short - make your humor quick and fast-moving
- Make sure you have a joke - try out your humor on others to see what works and what doesn't
- Use it as a way to give the audience a "break" - space out the humor in your speech
- A little goes a long way - use humor as a way to get your message across, make sure your humor relates to your speech point
