Goal for the Day: Contribute Something Positive

For as much as we are faced with negativity in our lives, we also have the power to foster positivity. At some point today, someone will likely try to cast a dark cloud over your life. Who knows why they do it? However, for each time someone surly crosses our paths, let’s each try to do something to counteract it. Many of us in the United States are treated to a day off today in celebration of Labor Day. Take some time today to think about what matters most to you. If there’s a cause that you really believe in, take a look online to see if there’s a group that supports that cause. If there is, you might consider making a donation. Most groups have an online form through which you can easily make a donation. Not to sound like Sally Struthers here, but even one dollar can make a difference. Whether your passion is for pets, historic preservation, feeding the hungry or helping people achieve wellness, you can make a positive contribution either through a donation of time or of money. Every step we take toward the positive is one step farther away from the negative.
