Reaching Out

Take some time this week to reach out. Make a call or send an email. Text someone. Send a note.

Here are a few ideas:

• call a close friend who lives in another state that you haven’t talked to in several months  
• send an email to a former employee or work peer who might need some encouragement  
• get in touch with an “unreachable” (out of your league) mentor or hero who has greatly inspired or impacted you from afar. Just to say thanks.  
• write a note to a coach, teacher or pastor who greatly influenced you during your childhood or teen years.  
• call or email your current pastor and tell them how grateful you are for their leadership.  
• share with your team a story of impact that happened this past year that will inspire and motivate.  
• take a gift to or leave a gift for your neighbor
  
• reach out to an aunt, uncle, cousin or relative who you haven’t talked with in a while. Invite them to your house for Christmas.  
• encourage a local civil servant or military member by saying hi and how you are grateful for their service.
