I will write down three things every day that I am grateful for, or send one email every day thanking or praising someone.

Racial inequity is both a sustainability and justice problem. I will support businesses owned by people of color in my community whenever I shop.

I will observe local, national, and international news each day this week through a conflict resolution lens.

I will pick up litter on my street and ask others to join me in taking care of our neighborhood.

I will use the communication methods I read about this week to practice effective, compassionate, and nonviolent communication with someone I interact with regularly: my roommate, my parents, my co-work, my partner, my classmates, or my children.

I will meditate or create a moment of silence for 5 minutes this week to reflect on the systems I am a part of and my role in them.
