Daily Resolution: Give It a Stamp of Approval

Resolutions  Posted by / 0 comments

Some of us still indulge in sending letters through snail mail. The next time you go to the post office for stamps, find something that says something indicative of you.

If you are writing to thank an individual or organization, be specific about what actions were taken and who benefited. Chances are you will feel better afterward and someone will be reassured they are not the only ones with similar feelings or grateful you took the time to thank someone deserving.
