AND THEN SOME MORE!

My book is titled 5 Words and Then Some. The "5 Words" section has chapters full of advice and wisdom on how to succeed in life. The "And Some" section covers topics like Volunteering, Public Speaking, Reading, setting your own Vision and Goals and much more. And in the very back is another chapter called "And Then Some More". I have received some positive feedback on this and thought I would share some of them.

* Always say "please"
* Always say "thank you"
* Always hold the door for the person behind you
* Always write thank you notes (hand written)
* Always write a sympathy card with a personal note when a friend or co-worker loses a close
family member
* When making a turn while driving, always use your signal light well in advance of making the
turn
* When you are out walking around town or on a hike, always pick up a piece of trash. Imagine
if we all picked up 2 pieces a day? Thats 730 a year times 17,500 people in Newburyport!!
* When someone moves in near you, bring them a bottle of wine or champagne, with a card,
welcoming them to the neighborhood.
* Say "hello" or "good morning" to everyone you meet, or pass and smile when you do
* Don't use your cell phone in public places or while driving and don't be talking while you are
in the checkout line at the supermarket and ignore the cashier
* Don't be rude or inconsiderate to anyone. There is too much negativity around as it is
* Pay for a meal at a restaurant for someone you don't know
* Do something nice for someone and don't tell them or anyone else
* Give someone a compliment or congratulate them on something nice that happened in their
life
* Grow a garden
* Recycle
* Start a compost pile
* Vote

You get the idea. Feel free to send me some of your own, and I will try to put them in the next
edition of my book. Send to franlarkin@comcast.net. Thanking you for your time, this time,
until next time, All Good Things, FRAN
