Happy Monday! Here's Drop number 43.
Before you scoff, no, we're not telling you to use up your vacation days to take the rest of this week off. We're challenging you to start your long weekend a little early in small ways. We know the worst part of a long weekend is the work days before and after, so we suggest alleviating that by mixing a bit of summer into your week. Step outside during lunch and soak in a few minutes of sun, go out for ice cream on a Thursday, or see a drive-in movie after work. There's no need to wait for Friday to get summer started, so enjoy your extra-long weekend, and good luck!

Happy Monday! On to Drop number 42.
There's no better time than Spring to breathe new life into the old and worn down things in your life. Whether that's an old car, appliance, part of your house, or anything else, we're sure there's something in your life that could use a touch up. This week, take the time to give one of these things a fresh start. Clean it, add a fresh coat of paint, or completely redecorate it; we think you'll find it's rejuvenating for you as well. Good luck!

Happy Monday! Here's Drop number 41.
This week, we're challenging you to leave a surprise for someone in your life. Simply write a friendly note and tuck it away for them to find. You can place it somewhere they'll find it in a hour, a day, a week, or a year, but make a small investment of kindness for someone in the future. You never know, someone might find it when they really need it. Happy hiding, and good luck!

Happy Monday! Here's Drop number 40.
This week, we invite you to go about your usual routine, but with a twist. It's easy to fall into habits and live life on autopilot, but we think you'll find adding a bit of novelty to the everyday can make even the mundane feel new. So this week, eat dinner like you usually do, but on the roof. Or spend an evening watching your favorite movie, but project it onto the side of the house. Even just brushing your teeth with your non-dominant hand will do the trick. Just add a little bit of variety to your usual routine this week, however that makes sense to you. Good luck!

Happy Monday! Gear up for Drop number 39.
While we certainly believe that you should live in the moment, we also believe it's incredibly beneficial to have something to look forward to down the line. Maybe it's a big vacation in a couple months, or coffee with a friend next week, but if you haven't already, make plans you can be excited for when the present gets a little dull. And if you have some already set, maybe make some more afterwards. Happy planning, and good luck!

Happy Monday! We're on to Drop number 38.
Spring flowers are starting to add a bit of color to the landscape, so this week we encourage you to do the same. Vibrant colors are scientifically proven to increase happiness, so find a place in your life to liven things up. When you go to the store and are deciding between two brands, go with the more colorful one. Take something from around the house and give it a fresh coat of bright yellow paint. Maybe just plant some flowers somewhere you'll see them everyday. Get creative with it, add a pop of color somewhere, and we think you'll find your day looks just a bit brighter. Happy coloring, and good luck!

Happy Monday! April is here, and so is Drop number 37.
Last week we invited you to declutter your life a bit, physically and/or mentally. This week, we're challenging you to add something new to your life. Spring is here, and it's the perfect time to plant new seeds, literally and figuratively. Invest some time and energy in something new this week, whether that be a new hobby, relationship, or building a new habit. Maybe it blooms into something beautiful, or maybe you find your garden isn't quite right for it, the point is to try something new this Spring. Happy planting, and good luck!

Happy Monday! Today's our last drop of March Gladness, number 36.
This week we invite you to clean out the madness from your life a bit, and we're not just talking about basketball. Spring is finally here (even if the weather hasn't quite caught up) so take some time this week to declutter whatever's gotten a bit out of hand lately, whether physically or mentally. Spring can be a great time for a fresh start to change things up or renew some of those New Years Resolutions that may have gotten lost over the last couple months, so make it a priority this week to clear out some of the madness in your life to make room for them.
The tournament may not be over, but all of our brackets have successfully run themselves out of correct teams. As such, we are excited to announce our first ever Perfectly Imperfect Champ: Suzanne, who only got 6 teams right out of 64! Congratulations, we'll be in touch about your prize, but for now, just revel in how wrong you can be. Thank you to everyone who participated, we hope you enjoyed watching your picks lose!

Happy Monday! Here's Drop number 35 (and a bracket challenge update).
This week, we're challenging you to root for the other guy. Maybe your team lost to a rival over the weekend, or someone beat you out for a promotion, or even just cut you in line. We know it's tough, but try rooting for them. If you can empathize with and encourage the ones that beat you, it makes the loss a whole lot easier, and makes you a lot less bitter. And if you're the one winning, do that with kindness as well.
Our Perfectly Imperfect Bracket Challenge is underway! You're all awfully good at being wrong, but they call it March Madness for a reason (we're looking at you Princeton). Those of you that had a 15 seed in the Sweet Sixteen can be proudly claim you called it to your friends (just leave out the part about meaning to be wrong).

Happy Monday! Here's your Drop for the week.
This one's pretty simple. When life throws something unexpected your way this week, our challenge is to just go with it. Whether that's a friend inviting you to go do something you wouldn't normally do, or a stranger starting up a conversation, be open to the unanticipated. Use good judgement, of course, but you might be surprised where things will lead you if you let them. So good luck, and go with the flow!
