A different kind of To Do list
I love making "to do" lists. There is nothing more satisfying than, one by one, crossing off the things that you've accomplished. Often, I'll even write down something that I've already done, just so that I can cross it off. Whatever, don't pretend you don't do it. Recently, I've had some pretty extreme changes in my personal life that have reminded me of the importance of surrounding myself with kindness and positivity. That has reminded me how important that it is to try to be a positive force in the lives around me, too. I have subconsciously added some different items to my daily "to do" list. Here are some things I try to do in my daily life: Compliment a friend Compliment a stranger Show gratitude Hold my tongue when what I might say is neither helpful or kind Do something for somebody else without being asked Smile at everyone I come into contact with Ask somebody else about their day Another big item on my "life" t
