Be Unreasonably Kind or Generous to Someone

It’s bananas what a mood boost this is. Seeing other people light up packs a punch. Entry level is to give a retail worker or server a very large tip. Harder when you’re down is to engage a stranger in pleasant small talk or really ask someone how they are — make someone feel seen and valued. Level up is to call or write to someone to express your sincere, specific gratitude for them. Feel like you’re part of the world and connected to the flow of it.
