I found the sweetest little book a month or so ago and decided to help me start getting my mind and heart set for thankfulness. I decided I would take the challenge of doing “One Good Deed a Day” and go through this gorgeous little book.

Some of the days are really simple and others take a bit more work. There are definitely more pages than days in the month of November, so I decided to randomly open the pages and that will be my challenge of the day. Would you like to take the challenge with me? You can find the One Good Deed A Day book on Amazon and I’ve also seen it at various Target stores.
Day 1: Leave a favorite book on a bus or train for the next passenger to enjoy.
I don’t do any traveling by bus or train here in NM so I decided to give one of my favorite books to a friend. I passed along Shauna Niequest’s Cold Tangerines. Oh my, I adore Shauna. (I often refer to her as- Shauna, my secret best friend.) I follow her on all social media and almost daily laugh at her truth inspired and yet very REAL writings.
Shauna’s thoughts on kids after Halloween…
Day 2: Tell a stranger he is being a good parent.
I’m participating this Friday in a “Favorite Things” giveaway and was doing some shopping at Target in preparation for it. I found a mother in line ahead of me and her kids were trying her nerves you could tell. I gave her a smile and said, “I’ve got two of my own… it’s a rough job, but you’re doing great!”
Are you as excited as I am about this new book? I’ll try to post each Sunday this month all the challenges I was able to accomplish!
Interested in seeing Day 2 of my Good Deeds challenge? Check this out!
Oh this is bad . . . so very very bad. I’m a notebook JUNKIE and will now HAVE to have this!!!
Thanks for sharing on Friday’s Unfolded! I’m so glad you did because this is the PERFECT gift for a few of those hard to buy for people in my life. 🙂

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this book and this idea! Thank you so much for sharing and inspiring some Christmas gifts! PINNED…to my a secret Gift board of course. 🙂
Love this book. I can’t wait to check it out. I’m thinking holiday presents??? Thanks for sharing!
This is such an amazing idea! Perfect for around the holiday season.
Hi, Visiting from Friday’s Unfolding link party. This is a great notebook inside out. i love Katie Daisy’s work. I purchased her 3-pack blank notebooks from Target. I used them for inspirational quotes and meditation journal.
Oh wow, I didn’t know she had a three pack! I’ll have to try and find them, thanks for letting me know!
What a great idea! I would love to have a book like this- I think I might just order one 🙂 Thank you for sharing this!
What a cute little book and great idea. I want to get this!
(I really like your blog design. So neat and clean. 🙂 )
Thanks so much, Keisha! I’m excited to see how the whole month rounds out. Thanks for the blog design comments, I just switched over to WordPress and it’s quite a learning curve!
SUCH a beautiful idea Amy!!!
Thanks, friend!
Looks like a great journal — I should give it a try. Another great journal is The Happiness Project One Sentence Journal. You only need to write one sentence a day, and it really helps me to remember the special moments in life!
Oh, I think I’ve heard of that book. I’ll have to check it out, thanks!
Stopping by from the Do Tell Tuesday Linkup. This is such a great idea and what a perfect time of year to start this. Thank you for sharing 🙂
What a great idea! I like that the prompts seem to be something that is easy to incorporate into your daily life and not somthing that requires a lot of prep or planning. Thanks for sharing!
Yes, Alayna. They are easy enough I think I can actually do this and not stress out about it! Thanks for stopping by.
Pretty notebooks are one of my weaknesses, and I love this one!!! And what a great idea, I love it!
I’m glad someone is with me on the pretty notebook weakness, too!
I love this book! I’m currently doing a 30 day challenge called Small Words Big Change, and this book goes right along with it. It’s all about showing gratitude daily. Thanks for sharing this!
I love this Amy! Such a great habit to cultivate.
This is SUCH a great idea! I absolutely love this little book – I shall have to try to find one! What a great and fun way to serve more 🙂
LOVE this, Amy! Nothing makes me happier than seeing goodness presented in such a pretty way. Will definitely check this out. Thanks for sharing! xo
