			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Every day there are countless opportunities to reach out to people in a way that will brighten their day and open the door for genuine relationships to form and grow.</p>
<p>Here is one of my favorites. <img src='http://josephranseth.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><object width="480" height="295" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/Km17PIxA6Uk&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;hd=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Km17PIxA6Uk&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;rel=0&amp;hd=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /></object></p>
<p>Bringing chocolates for the flight crew has been one of the greatest joys of my life! To hand them a gift of appreciation and to verbalize a genuine &#8216;thank you&#8217; has returned so many smiles, tears and hugs into my life.  It almost always ends up in a reciprocated service as well. (yes, it is nice to be upgraded to 1st Class for free, but more gratifying is to see someone light up with joy)</p>
<p>There are so many people who are working hard but not getting the appreciation and recognition that they deserve.  What can you do, today, to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Say &#8216;Thank You&#8217;</li>
<li>Offer an encouraging word to someone</li>
<li>Provide an opportunity for someone else to rise to their potential</li>
</ul>
<p>There are plenty of ways to do this, both online and offline.  <strong>What are some ways that you think are great to brighten someone&#8217;s day?</strong></p>
<h4>Add Your Suggestion to The Top 10 Ways to Brighten Someone&#8217;s Day</h4>
<p>First, I challenge you to go out and brighten someone&#8217;s day!</p>
<p>Second, we&#8217;re going to compile a list of the top 10 ways to perform random acts of kindness&#8230;this can be how you responded to the challenge, or any other way you like to brighten someone&#8217;s day!</p>
<p>Leave a comment and share your suggestion with all of us! We&#8217;ll compile it in a list and publish it for everyone to see. <img src='http://josephranseth.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
