“There is some good in this world, and it's worth fighting for.”
As I was thinking of some kind of “great” blog to write,
perhaps to inspire some out there, I have decided that what I can give the most
will be done by giving back. I searched for a “30 Day Good Deed Challenge” and
am going to stick to it. I have picked out 30 deeds I believe I can conquer and
by doing so, make the world a little bit of a better place, even if for 30
days.
Here is my list of Good Deeds I have chosen:
1) Post
notes on mirrors like "You look beautiful today!" to encourage
positive self image.
2) Leave
your extra change in a vending machine for someone else to use.
3) Be
a kind driver. Let someone merge in front of you during rush hour. Always use
your blinker.
4) Make
somebody smile.
5) Inspire
others by being kind, or maybe sharing an inspirational video/quote/book.
6) Anonymously
grant a wish on someone's Amazon wishlist wedding registry.
7) Cut
coupons and leave them by the appropriate items in a grocery store for others
to use.
8) Pay
it forward by offering to pay the bill for the person in line behind you at the
drive in, or at the tolls on a highway.
9) Go
a day without complaining.
10) Watch less
television.
11) Pick up a
piece of trash you find on the ground and dispose of it properly.
12) Leave a
note or a dollar in a library book for somebody else.
13) Meatless
Mondays.
14) Send
someone an encouraging old fashioned letter praising them for what they mean to
you and what good they do in this world.
15) Donate to a
charity of your choosing.
16) Give
someone a compliment.
17) In the
office, at the bank, on an elevator or a train, hold the door open for someone
else.
18) Address
your server or waiter by name and leave a generous tip.
19) Tape
popcorn to Redbox for Movie night.
20) Push up
Grocery Carts at a store.
21)
Do something to help Mom.
22) Leave a
book you have already finished somewhere for someone else to read.
23) Open the
phone book, pick a name, and send them something (movie tickets, thank you
card, you are appreciated card, book, etc.) anonymously.
24) Offer to
babysit.
25) Purchase a
canned or dry good to give to a local food bank.
26) Spend extra
time playing with your pet
27) Forgive someone.
28) Make dinner
for someone you care about.
29) Buy or make
a present for your co-workers.
30) On Day 30,
remind others of what good they can do.
So, I will begin my Challenge next week. I will update as I
see fit on doing so because I know there will be no way I can update everyday.
I am really excited about doing this and hope that I get as much out of it as
some others do!
