Give (and get) a smile from someone new every day

This is one of the most rewarding things in my list. I love it, theres nothing better than bringing some light into other peoples lives.

This is the one goal I am neglecting too much lately. I really have to work harder on this one.

The smile from Kafka, as found in a comment on this entry gave me a reason to no longer look forward to trying to get a smile from someone new every day.

I have made no progress on this goal, but it is the goal that I’ve received the most cheers on. I haven’t even paid attention to whether or not I’ve given or received smiles during a given day. I (perhaps wrongly) think I have better things to do with my time and attention.

Sooooooooooo worth it! It’s contagious and you’ll be amazed how much of a de-stressor it is.

It’s worth doing every day

Even if you don’t feel “smiley” it works on you.

Just look positive and anyone you make eye contact with, smile and sometimes say hello. This even works on 6th avenue in NYC. Sometimes leads to conversations and meeting new people.
