“Paying it forward” it one of the kindest things you can do for someone else — as well as for yourself. There’s countless ways to do this, but here’s a few, for starters:
1) Donate any books you no longer read;
2) Pay for the coffee of someone behind you in line;
3) Smile and say hello to people you don’t know (it’s contagious!);
4) Send a handwritten note to someone (it’s a dying art, but always most appreciated!);
5) Open doors for others (another gesture always met with kindness).
So what do YOU do to pay it forward?
