Pay It Forward


Hey, everyone! Happy Friday!

As you can tell from the title of this post, it's something a little different. I got to thinking about paying it forward, and decided that I wanted to do a blog post as a reminder to us all.

I recently saw an opportunity to help someone out. This person was a complete stranger but I saw them on social media. They needed something that I had. I knew this because of a comment they had made online, so I reached out to that person and sent them the item that I had that they needed. It wasn't a big deal to send the item, but I felt good that I helped them out and they were very appreciative and I think it made their day too.

There was a time when a total stranger did something like this for me and ever since then if I see an opportunity where I can help someone out, I try to take that opportunity. It doesn't have to be an act of grandeur or cost a lot of money to pay it forward, it could be something small that you do for someone to brighten their day. There are a lot of things that we don't have control of in life, but luckily, this is one thing we do have control of. It's all up to us.

Everyone has some kind of struggle in this life and life is not easy these days. I just want this post to remind everyone to try and make someone's day. Maybe we can bring back the "Pay It Forward" trend that started way back when. It shouldn't be a trend, I use that word loosely. I just want to keep it going. So, I challenge you to make someone's day and let's keep this going.

Have a great weekend! xo

Ps. My weekly fitness update should be posted tomorrow.
