“We must make sure that we all have each other’s back and that we all get through this catastrophe together, without leaving anyone behind.”

Start a collection for your local food bank at a community store. For many, the need for food is year round, not just during the holidays.

Today I am there for others to help in a way that they need.

“We must never give up praying until this pandemic is over.”

Be a beacon of positivity. Remember, positive energy doesn’t remain stagnant; it has the power to transfer to another and turn their entire day around.

Today I’m determined to have a beautiful and wonderful day! No matter what obstacles life throw at me I will face them with grace and positivity.

“Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.”

Next time you’re at the grocery store and someone is short on change, offer to give them what little you can. It happens to the best of us.

Today I am free to express what I’m feeling. Hiding my emotions won’t get me anywhere. I am ready to express myself in creative ways!

“We can do no great things, only small things with great love.”

Take a few moments to neatly hang up your clothes in a store dressing room.

Today I will focus on taking just one step forward, no matter how small or large a step. Today and everyday, I move myself and my dreams forward!

“One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood.”

At the end of the day, call or text a friend to see how their day went.

Today I embrace my individuality and remind a friend to do the same. We are all special in our own unique ways.

“You are what you are when nobody is looking.”

Be honest with yourself and the people around you. It’s just as important to be true to yourself as it is to be true to others.

Today I am honest with myself and with others. It’s about time I recognize how I really feel and express that to others.

“Be an encourager. The world has plenty of critics already.”

Leave an inspirational note in your favorite library book before returning it. Your words may be the motivation the next patron was hoping to find.

Today I live my passion so that I may inspire others to live theirs.

“It is lovely, when I forget all birthdays, including my own, to find that somebody remembers me.”

Gather all your coworker’s birthdays and create a Birthday Wall.

Today I can bring out the best in people by encouraging them, complimenting them, and showing them they are appreciated.

“A kind heart is a fountain of gladness, making everything in its vicinity freshen into smiles.”

Spend some time organizing your closet. Donate clothing, blankets, coats, toys, scarves, and anything in between that you don’t use anymore to a local homeless shelter, charity, or religious organization.

Today I open myself up to the beauty of giving others a chance to give.

“For it is in giving that we receive.”

Offer someone your seat on the bus or train (try it on a day when you could’ve used the seat—the experience is quite different).

Today I am thoughtful. I don’t wait to receive, I seek opportunities to give.

“Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.”

Offer to join a neighborhood cleanup effort or, even better, start your very own!

Today I offer support. I know how important it is to help a friend in need.

“A smile is a curve that sets everything straight.”

Compliment someone today!

Today I choose to greet everyone I see with a smile! Smiling at someone makes me feel good and it can make them feel the same!

“Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.”

Call or visit a friend or relative who hasn’t been feeling well lately. Showing that you care can be very powerful medicine.

Today I will make it my duty to cheer someone up who is having a rough day! A phone call, a smile, or anything I can do to make them smile.

“It’s better to recall something you wish you’d said than something you wish you hadn’t.”

Fight the urge to gossip. Ask yourself, what do you want to be known for?

Today I choose kindness; in both words and deeds.

“Happiness is not something that you get in life. Happiness is something you bring to life!”

Proclaim today Kindness Day! Plan a kindness activity in your place of work.

Today I exude happiness in everything I do and every action I take.
