How do your non-Grange friends and family perceive the Grange
through you and your fellow members? Do you sometimes catch yourself talking
about the “good old days” or griping about someone? Does it frustrate you
that your fellow members are not always as positive as they could be?
If so, try smiling whenever you say Grange. Challenge
yourself and your fellow members to smile whenever they talk about Grange.
This may seem silly, but if you are up to this challenge it will change
your, and your fellow members' attitude toward the Grange.
It is very difficult to be negative when you’re smiling. When
you smile and talk about something, you project a positive image. A smile
has been shown to actually improve your own attitude and outlook. A smiling
person is more trusted and is someone others want to be around.
Start smiling whenever you talk about your Grange and make
growth happen!
