Make Someone Smile

“Be the reason someone smiles today…” 😊✨✨

As I was scanning the news, this idea jumped out at me. What a wonderful intention! Connecting with people by going throughout the day spreading reasons for people to smile.

What and Why we do things can be greatly impacted by How we choose to deliver a message and take action. Many times, I see well intended initiatives generating unnecessary harsh uncomfortable situations. Have you been surprised with an unexpected misunderstanding, where you end up saying… but that was not my intention?

If we step back to see the reason for that outcome, it is often tied to the state in which we find ourselves. For example, are we in a rush to complete an activity, focused on the outcome without considering the impact of our actions, absent minded, or having a bad day?

I have found that one of the keys to having a pleasant and memorable connection with others is the Intention of how we want to feel and how we would like to make others feel. We own this choice! Do we go throughout the day looking at the bright side of things, with a smile, thinking about the possibilities, being grateful... It is more simple than what we think….. The challenge for many of us is shifting the habits we may have built for ourselves and the environment we are surrounded by… Monitor what you are exposed to regularly and train yourself to connect to a positive outlook.

Take a few moments during the day to Be intentional and program yourself to “be the reason someone smiles today”
