STEP 1: Think about those people you’d like to thank…those you couldn’t live life without. Make a list and determine if you want to buy them a card or write a hand-written note. If you buy them a card, write something in it as well in order to make it more personal and meaningful.
STEP 2: Jot down ideas of what you would like to say to these people, and then hand-write it out. Letters mean SO much more than an email. Thank your people for what they’ve done, what they’ve said, when they’ve supported or encouraged you, or maybe when they gave you the tough love that you needed. Whatever it is, get it on paper and let them know how you feel. Don’t hold anything back.
STEP 3: Make sure you have their updated address. Mail the card or letter. We don’t get nearly enough fun mail that isn’t junk or bills. There is something really special about getting a card of letter in the mail.
STEP 4: Continue to write letters/cards until you have completed your list from your tribe. All of them will be special, but all will be a little bit different based on your experiences with them and how they supported you.
STEP 5: Whether you get a call/text from them or not, know that your words were appreciated and that your time was well spent. It’s a beautiful experience to sit down and really think about why you love people and how they make a positive impact on your life. It makes them feel loved and it gives you a powerful reminder of your many blessings.
