Send someone an encouraging message before a big day

Wish someone luck or strength before something important to them.

Why it helps

Knowing someone is on your side lowers nerves and builds confidence. It takes you a minute and may matter a lot.

How to do it

1. Think of someone with an exam, interview, appointment or event ahead.
2. Write a short line of encouragement.
3. Send it the morning before or of the day.

Make it easier

Make it harder
