Be More Thoughtful

You know your coworker works really hard and can come in a bit bedraggled at the end of an arduous week. Why not walk up to her, say, “Good Morning!,” and hand her a vitamin-rich protein smoothie or fresh hand-pressed juice?

Mindful Memo

Write a note of gratitude to the people in your everyday life who make a difference-the mailman, a grocery clerk, or the greeter at the mall. Tell your friends about their great service so their businesses can grow. Just by paying attention to those who can so easily go unnoticed (especially if your smartphone is glued to your hand), you can enrich each other’s lives a little each day.

Catch People Doing Something Right (and Make Sure They Know It)

During difficult transitions, our natural tendency is often to resist change and grow rigid. In this state, we

seem to only be able to focus on the negatives. We think about the despair that follows the death of a loved

one, but not the wonderful moments spent together. We think of the heartbreak of a relationship ending,

but not the exhilaration and freedom of being unattached. We might even scold our loved ones, or our

friends, or coworkers for something minor when we ourselves wallow in similar negativity. But it is in

these moments that gratitude can be used to alter this way of thinking.

Finding positives and accentuating them is the easiest way to turn those proverbial frowns upside down

and gray skies back to blue. Try catching someone doing something right for a change, not something

wrong. Giving praise for a job well done will lift all parties involved.

Agree to Disagree

Respect the choice of others. We may not always agree with our loved ones, but increase peace by 

respecting their decisions and being there for them regardless. If everyone thought alike, think how boring

 it would be. Our differences enrich our lives, and all the more so when handled respectfully.

Start a Changepot

This is exactly as it sounds: a pot for change. If you don’t mind stopping in the middle of a sidewalk or side of the road, pick up loose change that has fallen to the ground. Add your findings to the same pot and after a few months, see how much you have collected. If you’re strapped for cash, spend your findings on a nice meal for your family. If you are fairly stable financially, donate the money (anonymously) to a good cause.
