Every Monday Matters

Hi, everyone!

I hope this post finds you well and enjoying this beautiful spring day. I have a proposition for all of you that I am hoping you will not refuse. I think you all will find it worth your time and effort. Let me explain what I have in mind.

My wonderful friend Angela Saoud bought me a book called Every Monday Matters: 52 ways to make a difference. Needless to say, I was beyond thrilled to dig into the book. What I love the most is that the ways to make a difference are easy. Too often people don't want to try to make a difference out of an irrational fear that it is too difficult or will take too much time. This couldn't be further from the truth. It is our duty to leave a positive, lasting impact. We should want to be remembered for the good we put into the world. We need to stop taking and start giving. (Is that a line from a Michael Jackson song?)

Because of this, I want you to join me in making a difference. The book gives a list of 52 ways to make a positive impact, and that's what I am planning on doing. Each week I am going to post one of the tasks. It is our job to go out and make it happen. :) Imagine what a positive change we could create if we all just took a small amount of time out of our week and accomplished one small task on the list. To me, it is exciting and inspiring. Positivity breeds more positivity. Let's work to make this a better place for ourselves and younger generations to grow up in. It takes one person to start a ripple.

This leads me to my question. Are you in?

Let's go do great things!
