September 12 is National Day of Encouragement
This day is dedicated to encouraging and having a positive impact on those around us.
The best thing about this day is that you can make someone happy by simply saying a few words of encouragement.
Your words have the power to lift someone when they are down.
They also have the power to motivate someone who might be struggling or encourage someone to pick themselves back up after a setback.
A small act of encouragement could be the spark that changes a loved one’s perspective.
To praise and encourage someone’s efforts is a practice worth having, no matter the day of the year.
HOW TO OBSERVE NATIONAL DAY OF ENCOURAGEMENT
Acts of encouragement require so little – a bit of time, the right words, and noticing accomplishments, even small ones. Encourage someone you know in many ways:
- Let them know you noticed their progress.
- Provide reassurance and inspiration to the people around you.
- Give a High five to someone for a job well done.
- Take notice when a friend is getting close to a hard-earned goal, encouraging them to keep going.
- Send a card or give a call or text to a family member who may be struggling.
- Show your support by attending a friend’s performance, sporting event or exhibit.
