See that kid up there? I want to be a better me for THAT kid. So today when Chris Brogan posted this list in his post titled “How You Could Help” I immediately knew that I was going to post it verbatim.

Numbers That Matter

• Number of smiles you caused today.
• Number of hugs you distributed today.
• Number of meals you ate with people you love.
• Number of times you promoted someone else.
• Number of ways you encouraged others today.
• Number of times you took a break for yourself.
• Number of times you ate the right food.
• Number of glasses of water you drank.
• Number of dollars you put in a needy hand.
• Number of opportunities you get to educate people.
• Number of times you ignore the haters and grow.
• Number of times you say positive things to yourself.
• Number of times you say no so you can say yes to the bigger opportunity.

I’m a list writer. I wake up in the middle of the night and have to write down my thoughts so that I can get them out of my head. Thanks Chris Brogan for giving me a new list of much more important things than my typical “pay the electric bill” list items.
