7 Thoughtful Ways to Brighten Someone’s Day – Being thoughtful means you show consideration toward the needs of others. Most people respond positively when someone is thoughtful toward them. Can you imagine if everyone took the time to be thoughtful to at least one person a day? It would definitely make the world a much nicer place to live.
Even though this probably won’t happen, you can still do your part to be thoughtful toward others. Here are 7 ways to do it.
1. Do a Chore for Your Significant Other
Most couples have certain chores that each of them does around the house. But if you notice your significant other is busier than usual or working long hours, why not pitch in and do a chore for them? You can wash the dishes, do the laundry, or get the oil changed in their vehicle. Whatever chore you decide to do for them, they will surely appreciate your thoughtfulness.
2. Spend the Day with a Loved One
Life is busy which means we don’t always spend enough time with those we love. Whether it’s your child, parent, grandparent, neighbor, or best friend, set aside a day just for them.
3. Send a Greeting Card
In this digital age, receiving a greeting card is becoming a rare event. But sending a greeting card is a wonderful way to show thoughtfulness for another person. This is especially the case if it’s not even their birthday or a special occasion. Not only will they love the card, but they will also enjoy getting something fun in the mail besides bills!
4. Lend a Listening Ear
In a world filled with distractions, it can be hard to sit down and really listen to others. Listening to loved ones is a way to show your concern for them. It shows that you’re being thoughtful and that you really care. So shut off the phone, find a quiet place to sit, and really listen to their ideas, feelings, or problems.
5. Bake Goodies for Others
Everyone loves homemade goodies. If you love baking cookies, cake, muffins, or any other homemade food, why not share the goodies with your co-workers or neighbors? If you’re not so great at baking, you can always buy some and share that way, too.
6. Do Something You Don’t Want to Do
Does your significant other or best friend always give in to where you want to go for lunch or what movie you want to see? One way to show your consideration for others is to do something you don’t want to do. Whether it’s bowling, trying a new food, or listening to a different music genre. They will appreciate it when you do it just for them.
7. Give someone a National Day Calendar
The New Year isn’t too far away. This means you’ll have another great opportunity to show thoughtfulness toward others. Help them get ready for the New Year by surprising them with a National Day Calendar. Not only will they appreciate your thoughtfulness all throughout the year, but they will also be able to Celebrate Every Day!
