Share Your Generosity!

"Follow through on all your generous impulses."
- Epictetus

For some reason that quote's stuck with me over the years. The idea of following through on a good thought really made sense to me. Maybe it's because I grew up with kind and generous parents that would do anything for anyone. Maybe I just like the feeling I get inside when I do something nice for someone. Big or little, it's an amazing feeling.

So I've had people text me, email me, comment on instagram posts, etc. to tell me about their generous impulses. I feel warm and fuzzy every single time and I love being the person they share it with. So what's the problem? It stops at my inbox, my phone, my instagram. I was thinking the other day about how I can get it to keep going. I brainstormed with my #1 fan (Ben!) and talked about a way that I could get people to share with each other. What if there was a place to post these "generous impulses" so that others could see them too and holy shit, maybe even be inspired by them?! If there was a problem, yo, I'll solve it.

I created a little online bulletin board that people can access anytime using the "Share your generosity!" button over there on the right. Share whatever you want! How you've displayed your generosity, how someone's made your day, ideas you have for making other people's day, whatever the hell you want! I moderate it, so don't try to get all crazy on me.

How to post:
1. Double click anywhere on the background.
2. Enter your name or the post title.
3. Share your generosity! Write a little story, scale your post box and drag it around.
4. Once you click off of it it'll give me the ability to approve it, then boom! It's there!

Bottom line is, everyone has the ability to make someone's day. Whether it's a friend's or a stranger's. Sometimes it's something as silly as telling someone to have a great day!

Have a generous impulse? Do it. Share it. Repeat.
