BE AN ENCOURAGER

“When you encourage others, you boost their self esteem, enhance their self-confidence, make them work harder, lift their spirits and make them successful in their endeavors. Encouragement goes straight to the heart and is always available. Be an encourager. Always.” 

-Roy Bennett, The Light in the Heart
