Give encouragement and it expands. When you encourage someone else the person who ends up with the most profound encouragement is very often you.

Every life is filled with unused potential. Encouragement breaks that potential loose, activates it, transforms it into all kinds of good things.

Even just a little bit of encouragement can create a shift to a whole new perspective. Knowing that someone cares, feeling the reality of that caring, changes the world.

Encouragement is contagious. One person who is encouraged will encourage many others who will themselves pass encouragement along.

All around you are people who can benefit from your encouragement, including you. If you seek to make a difference, that’s a potent opportunity for doing so.

Offer encouragement. Be a positive, encouraging force in the lives of those around you, and in your own life as well.
