Monday Tip: A warm “good morning”
This monday, your mission is really simple: All morning, give everyone you meet an extra warm greeting. Smile broadly. Say “Good morning” in a cheerful voice. Take time to ask people how they are (really, not the fake “how are you” greeting).
Don’t worry if people don’t answer or don’t smile back - it’s not a slight on you they may just be preoccupied or having a bad day. When that happens smile even more at the next person :o)
