Plan twenty minutes — perhaps during a walk, after yoga or meditation, or even when sitting quietly in your home with a cup of tea.

• Think about people in your life who could use your support: loved ones, your child's teacher, someone at work. Note that person (you can do this mentally or write it in a journal).
• Think of ways you can support that person in the next week, perhaps by having a conversation, making an introduction, gifting a spa treatment, or just letting him or her know you care.
• Over the next week act on your intent to support this person. Record your feelings as you embark on this journey.
• Having done that, and experienced what it means to give support, plan another twenty minutes to do the same kind of reflection about who can support you in your intents.
