Smile And Increase Your Face Value

[vc_row][vc_column][thb_gap height=”15″][vc_column_text]Few months from now, it will be “World Hello Day!”  To participate, we’re invited to say “HELLO” to at least 10 people we’ve never spoken to before – on the street, in the store, at the office-anywhere and everywhere! But hey, why wait for the World Hello Day when we can start today.  So, get ready, get friendly and say “HELLO!”  And say it with a smile!  Let’s face it, a smile increases your face value.  We can use that to advantage, at home and in public.[/vc_column_text][thb_gap height=”25″][vc_column_text]If a smile is hard to conjure up, then practice.  Look in the mirror.  What do you see? A blah, nothing’s-there expression? A frown?  There’s a song my children sing when they’re down or when I’m down.  It goes:  “If you chance to meet a frown, do not let it stay.  Quickly turn it upside down and smile that frown away.”[/vc_column_text][thb_gap height=”25″][vc_column_text]It works! And better yet, a smile all days keeps the doctor away.  You’d better believe it.  Research reveals that laughter could play an important part in healing, possibly even the prevention of disease.  And who needs to be sick![/vc_column_text][thb_gap height=”25″][vc_column_text]Laughter lessens tension, anxiety and depression.  Worries and fears are all but forgotten at least for a while. And mountains become molehills that we can tackle and conquer.[/vc_column_text][thb_gap height=”40″][vc_column_text]

“One SMILE, can start a friendship. One WORD, can end a fight.  One LOOK, can save a relationship. One PERSON, can change your life.”

[/vc_column_text][thb_gap height=”40″][vc_column_text]If you’re too tired to raise the corners of your mouth, then at least let the middle droop a little.  Then square those shoulders, lift than chin and grin!  Take it all the way to a good giggle and guffaw![/vc_column_text][thb_gap height=”25″][vc_column_text]Walk around the room, pat the couch, knock on wood and give out with a hearty, “Hello chair!” “How are you lamp?” And grin as you go.[/vc_column_text][thb_gap height=”25″][vc_column_text]Sound silly? You bet it is.  But it’s a good practice and it feels great. If you didn’t feel happy before, you will now slap happy, if nothing else![/vc_column_text][thb_gap height=”25″][vc_column_text]Then stride out, you know how with an attitude of “Hello world, here I come!” Flash that smile and say “Hello” to friends, to colleagues and clients.  Say “Hello” to people you’ve never spoken to before, to some unsuspecting stranger, to the cross lady in the corner store, to an old man, to a mother with a bunch of kids to care for, to the messenger, to someone who you’d like to be a special someone, and who knows who else.  You decide.[/vc_column_text][thb_gap height=”25″][vc_column_text]Try it.  And just watch their reactions.  It’s great fun.  And when you meet someone without a smile, give him one of yours.[/vc_column_text][thb_gap height=”25″][vc_column_text]“World Hello Day” will definitely be a special day and a dress day.  But you can make everyday special by sharing your “SMILE and HELLO” to everyone. So remember my bottom line, “You’re never fully dressed without a smile!”[/vc_column_text][thb_gap height=”30″][/vc_column][/vc_row]
