@mrraffel A4: It could be as simple as a smile creating the ripple effect, having everyone smile at at least 1 other person in the morning could change the atmosphere. In turn, productivity and growth increase. Checking on others & doing random acts of kindness could work too. #D54happy

@Monica2ndgrade @mrraffel So true - body language says a lot more than some think. Too many times we get caught up in our day and don't realize our demeanor is catchy too.

@cmd408 @mrraffel @shawnachor Love this idea of words of affirmation or encouragement - I love to put quotes and words around the room and on the door so everyone is reminded of those things!

[Denise Bach @DeniseBach8]

@cmd408 @mrraffel 100%!!!

@mrraffel I think my answer to the 2nd question also applies here - if someone with a positive mindset comes in with an idea, it's easy for the next person to be excited too and so on. When working on teams, this creates a better general environment and more success for everyone.

@mrraffel @shawnachor I have seen this on my team when one person shares an idea with everyone; everyone gets excited, jumps on board, and the idea comes to fruition and turns out great because we are all excited about it and working together. If the idea were met with negativity, it wouldn't happen.

@Monica2ndgrade @mrraffel @shawnachor HAHA!! Don't they all! But yes, good point. A bad mood transfers to others quickly!

[Denise Bach @DeniseBach8]

@Monica2ndgrade @mrraffel We think alike :)

[Denise Bach @DeniseBach8]

@mrraffel A1: I think the ripple effect is how one person's actions directly affect some but indirectly affect many. If you smile at 3 people and those 3 people smile at 3 people, you've inadvertently affected all those lives. #D54Happy

@karen75036 @mrraffel We do this same thing in the kitchen and with the babies' toys - so helpful and less overwhelming!

@ChristineD42172 @mrraffel I've found that if I put it in my family room, my husband will likely fold the clothes for me! WIN!!

[Denise Bach @DeniseBach8]

@Monica2ndgrade @mrraffel Yes! Those are the times when friends and family are needed most! Hugs!!

[Denise Bach @DeniseBach8]

@mrslindenborn @mrraffel Love not being rushed in the mornings!

@mrraffel A2: Although sometimes social sites can "suck you in" it can be uplifting to see your support system in tough times. I have reconnected with some amazing friends through social media & for that, I'm grateful! #D54Happy

@Monica2ndgrade @mrraffel Great idea! I see my treadmill but it now has boxes piled on it in the basement - yikes!

[Denise Bach @DeniseBach8]

@Monica2ndgrade @mrraffel Me too - too many times, the veggies sit in the drawer!!

@karen75036 @mrraffel Great picture!
