MISSOULA, Mont. — To motivate things this week, I have a challenge that I wanted to entrust to you.

There are so many of us who are always thinking kind compliments in our minds about strangers we meet throughout the day, but for some reason, many of us keep them to ourselves rather than share our nice thoughts with them.

others.

Kindness is such a simple thing that we can all spread ourselves more often, and a great place to start is with giving a compliment to a stranger. So with that being said, my challenge this week is to say three positive things to complete strangers in passing.

It could be from work, the gym or even the grocery store. Being kind can make an impact, and if everyone who watches this takes up the challenge, we could have a pretty nice community this week.

Finally, lean on someone who can help lift you up. It can still be a great day!
