For years I would consider myself to not be a Mondays kind of girl. In fact, I am not even a morning person. I am more of an afternoon/early evening person. And then a lot of times I am a night owl. Now I am all about loving Mondays and I think that you should be too!
We love doing good things in our community. My kids get just as involved as I do and we have done things like pay for someone's breakfast, bring coffee to a teacher and pay tolls on the highway for people behind us. The thing is that doing good can be easy and since it feels great, why not do it more often?
Jimmy Dean believes that good mornings lead to great days. Starting the day with a great breakfast, like a Jimmy Dean breakfast sandwich, can have a positive impact on your day. And, when you’re feeling good, you’re likely to “do some good.” Jimmy Dean is launching its new “Shine it Forward” campaign, which reinforces how small acts of kindness – volunteering, buying coffee for a co-worker, or holding the door open for a stranger – can create a positive chain reaction and turn the world into a brighter place. Here are some small acts of kindness that you can do today:
To kick off the campaign, Jimmy Dean announced today (11/2) the launch of #MondaysForGood and they want to rally America to join the “Shine it Forward” movement. is encouraging people nationwide to make their Monday mornings matter by taking time to do something nice for others.

Love this list and I always do this ==> Let someone ahead of you in traffic 🙂 I think I need to send my mother in law flowers.
These are great ideas.I always try to live by the saying, be the change you want to see in the world. Sometimes I am more successful than others. Great reminder!
These are simple acts of kindness that make a lot difference. I like to smile at strangers and let someone ahead of me in traffic.
These are acts of kindness that should be done for people to be more blessed. Everyone needs a hand and it will really be a big help to them if you provide the things they need, especially when they’re in dire need of a lifeline.
I’ve done some of these things. I recently had someone put coins in a meter for me. 🙂
Smile is the nicest thing you can give to anyone. It cost nothing but ut makes people feel better.
Very nice- I love campaigns like this- shared !
I love this! A great way to show humility! I love the idea of smiling at strangers because you never know whose day you might make!
I adore this campaign. Doing good for the sake of doing good is such a wonderful experience – and I think that this is a great thing to challenge our kids to do too. Ultimately the future is theirs, so if we can help them brighten it up, so much the better.
These are all great RAOK and great ways to make Mondays better. I don’t have much money to give to others, but I do offer a smile. 🙂
These are really great ideas! I have always liked the pay the tolls for other behind me.
With so much unkindness in the world, it’s always wonderful to practice random acts of kindness. Great ideas!
What a great campaign by Jimmy Dean. It’s always heartwarming to read and learn about campaigns such as this. Kudos toJjimmy Dean!
The day after the weekend is always rough! Although it is a nice reminder of a refresh – its a new week and new opportunities waiting for you! I love motivational campaigns like this, thanks for sharing!

I always try to do random acts of kindness throughout the day. You never know when one little thing you do can change someones day for the better.
I love doing random acts of kindness. I pay it forward whenever I can. Also, I am a huge fan of Jimmy Dean.
Those are some great acts of kindness. They can all really help make someones day. I’ve done some of these before and I know it makes everyone feel so much better. These can help make someones day even better!
I started my Monday by paying it forward in the Starbucks line! I always feel god after doing something for someone else!
This is an amazing list of shine it forward things people can do for others. I love this idea and Jimmy Dean sausages.
This is a great list of ways to give kindness to others. I always try to start my day with a smile.
You know, random acts of kindness are my fave – and I have always loved Jimmy Dean sausage so this sounds like the perfect marriage!
