This Week's Ripple Challenge

Tell someone exactly why you appreciate them.

Think of someone whose effort makes your life better. Tell them what you noticed and why it matters.

How to take the challenge

  1. Pick one person: a friend, a coworker, a family member, a neighbor, or someone whose work often goes unnoticed.
  2. Name one specific thing they did. Not “you're great,” but “the way you checked on me last week.”
  3. Tell them why it mattered to you, in person, by text, or in a handwritten note.
  4. Then simply let it land. No favor attached, nothing expected back.
Dawn's tip: Use Dawn's sincerity check: Is it true? Is it specific? Is it free? Would you say it when they're not in the room?

Done it? If you'd like, tell us what happened. Sharing is optional.
