According to Lynne McTaggart, author of The Intention Experiment, the newest scientific research in the field of “Intention” observed that the person receiving positive intentions get unbelievable changes and immediate improvements: i.e. one person with daily headaches suddenly woke up the next day without one while another person with an eye problem reported being healed with 80% of her sight returned.
HOWEVER, the most interesting finding of this research is that the persons sending the intentions (acknowledgement, appreciation, kind attention, gratitude) have reported receiving permanent improvements and positive changes in their own lives.

Lift up your own spirit with these 3 Simple Steps to Acknowledging people you know or meet on the pathway of your life. Make it a daily practice to acknowledge others as a way to keep shining your light.
Research has been able to measure a direct correlation between morale and the bottom line. Real leadership begins on the inside with your own commitment to inspire the best in others and be the difference you want to make in your lifetime. (Emerson said it best: “It’s one of the most beautiful compensations in life that no person can help another without helping themselves.“)
Speaking forth acknowledgement when you are thinking good thoughts about others is exactly what creates an inclusive home, school and workplace where people with differences and disabilities feel welcome and valued for their contributions. When people feel heard, seen and valued, they show up wanting to do the same for others.
It takes less than 30 seconds to take your “I Make A Difference” wristband off your wrist (out of your pocket or purse) to acknowledge the greatness you see in someone. By simply making the time to let someone know how much they matter and what a difference they just made in your life, it catapults you to your own natural high.
Acknowledgement causes us to make the 12-inch journey from the heads to our hearts, which enables us to better understand the impact acknowledgement makes on others. When people feel like they DO Matter, they DO Make A Positive Difference.
Acknowledging others increases an inner sense of one’s life purpose, one’s connection with others and one’s sense of purpose in the world. This all helps us experience the energetics of reaching out to make a difference each and every day.

Making a Difference One Person At A Time
It was pure serendipity when I was introduced to Helice “Sparky” Bridges, author and speaker, by one of our mutual followers.
Before meeting her, I too was an author, speaker, and movie producer (Make A Difference Movies –Teddy Stallard Story, Simple Gestures Story, Lost Cause Kid Story, Connection Movie, and A Silent Night Movie).
When we first connected, we discovered we were on the same path to be influential Difference Makers: to save lives, defuse bully behavior, ignite confidence, align and advance relationships to heal the generational legacy of pain in our world, one acknowledged person at a time.
It seemed like the logical next step for us to collaborate to form an exclusive contractual agreement for my company, Heart Productions & Publishing LLC, to produce the online movie version of Who I Am Makes A Difference story showcasing Helice’s Blue Ribbon Acknowledgement Ceremony. We joined our intentions to make the world a better place.
The Acknowledgement Movie hit 3 million views on YouTube within the first several months, and we’re both still working to Make A Life-Affirming Difference! The movie is available to purchase for public events.

It was pure serendipity when Mary Robinson Reynolds, author, speaker and movie producer (Make A Difference Movies –Teddy Stallard Story, Simple Gestures Story, Lost Cause Kid Story, Connection Movie), was introduced to Helice “Sparky” Bridges, author and speaker, by one of their mutual followers.
When the two women connected, they discovered they were on the same path to be influential Difference Makers: to save lives, diffuse bully behavior, ignite confidence, align and advance relationships to heal the generational legacy of pain in our world, one acknowledged person at a time.
They collaborated to form an exclusive contractual agreement for Mary’s company, Heart Productions & Publishing LLC, to produce the online movie version of Who I Am Makes A Difference story showcasing Helice’s Blue Ribbon Acknowledgement Ceremony, and thus joined their intentions to make the world a better place.
The Acknowledgement Movie hit 3 million views on YouTube within the first several months, and neither of these women has stopped in their quest to Make A Life Affirming Difference!

“Thank you for doing what you are doing. You do make a difference. A box of Kleenex isn’t enough. Your Make A Difference movies are so moving, they touched my heart and opened my eyes.
In a world of ‘what more can I get’ I see the greater value in ‘what can I give’ . I have two young girls who will each receive a letter of acknowledgement and appreciation when they get home from school today. Thank you for inspiring me to inspire them.”

“Thank you for this encouragement. Yesterday was a very hard day filled with hopelessness. I am holding on and have to have internal fight to get through all of what I am facing. Your Acknowledgement movie gave me hope, something to hang onto. I will be watching this through the day when the hopelessness returns. Thank you, Mary, you made a difference today in my life.”

Hello, fellow PTA Members, School Faculty and Staff,
As the former PTA President of Ford Middle School in Allen, Texas and the initiator of the “Make A Difference Week” concept two years ago, I can tell you the activities during this week altered the energy in the school, as random acts of kindness filled the halls and expressions of appreciation and acknowledgement were the priority.
As the students in each class returned the second day, there was an excited buzz in the classroom, the atmosphere was changed.
The response was hands waving in the air and saying “Yes, we can.”
That day as they returned to school having experienced giving their I Make A Difference wristband with affirmative words to someone, you could sense that they indeed did believe they could, and were going to, make a difference.

Hello, fellow PTA Members, School Faculty and Staff,
As the former PTA President of Ford Middle School in Allen, Texas and the initiator of the “Make A Difference Week” concept two years ago, I can tell you the activities during this week altered the energy in the school, as random acts of kindness filled the halls and expressions of appreciation and acknowledgement were the priority.
The inspirational videos (one of which was Mary’s Acknowledgement Movie ) that the students silently watched with emotion, made a huge impact, and the stories related directly to the activities that were asked of the students throughout the week.
I have observed troubled students being transformed by the power of “Make A Difference Week” as they came to life by the simplest acknowledgement of their good nature from their teachers.
The purpose of this week is to demonstrate to the students new ways of making a difference in our world. These next generations are our future leaders, and the world is greatly depending on them to create a more peaceful coexistence for humanity. It’s crucial for kids to understand the important role they play in the world, and it’s up to us to remind them. “Make A Difference Week” is a fun-filled week that encourages students to be the “highest vision they have of themselves,” to bring out the good in others, and to practice the power of acknowledgement, appreciation and kindness.
One week can truly make the difference in our world by impacting the lives of our children, as we empower them to be the positive role models and community heroes for the generations that follow.
Now this amazing, nationally-recognized educator – Mary Robinson Reynolds – has taken “Make A Difference Week” to the next level.
I highly recommend her 9 Weeks to a Make A Difference Year Program as a way to create a tradition in building a caring and compassionate community of young adults in your school.
Please pass this email along to your Programs chairpersons.

For a Planned Event I Make A Difference® 3-Step Acknowledgement
Step 1: Each person receives one ‘I Make A Difference’ wristband to give to the person sitting behind him or her, and so on around the room, saying out loud and with eye contact if you can: “I want you to know that you Make A Difference by the way you______.”
Step 2: Tell them that they can wear it every day, and when they are having a tough day, to simply rub their finger over the words on the wristband to remind them that they do make a difference because someone told them so.
Step 3: In the spirit of the NY Teacher’s Pay It Forward acknowledgement story, give each person 3-4 more wristbands to put on their wrist (or to keep in their pocket, purse or briefcase) to wear until they find people who have made a difference in their lives that they can pass the wristband on to saying why and how those people have made a difference in their lives, going through steps 1 & 2.

For Random Acts of Acknowledgement
I Make A Difference® 3-Step Acknowledgement
Step 1: Notice when someone has just provided you with great service or random kindness: Ask them for a moment of their time to acknowledge them.
Step 2: Tell them how much you appreciate their kindness, help and/or service: Take out a wristband /sticker and say: This is a Wristband/Sticker that says I Make A Difference® and I want to give it to you today because you really have made a difference to me in the last few minutes and here’s why_________.
Step 3: Respect their choice to receive your gift: Ask if they will accept your gift…when they say YES, then give them the wristband/sticker. Then give them 3 more wristbands to Pay It Forward to others.
Also ask for permission to give them a hug. If you can see they are not instantly open to this – or comfortable with this – simply smile and tell them that you hope they have a great rest of the day because they’ve really made your day.
Always acknowledge the best in others and yourself, and the world will always change for the better before your very eyes.

NOTE: We no longer stock the blue ribbons and have switched to blue “I Make A Difference” wristbands, which people reportedly continue to enjoy wearing for years. To follow the guidelines for the “Acknowledgement Ceremony,” we recommend ordering five wristbands for each person: one to wear for themselves and four to go out in the world to acknowledge others with for starters. (Plan for ahead to assure delivery ahead of your event.)

It is also important to know:
No single therapeutic approach is suitable for all people considering suicide or suicidal tendencies. The most common ways to treat underlying illnesses associated with suicide are with medication, talk therapy or a combination of the two. PREVENTION is about bringing transformational programs into our schools, places of work and churches that effectively build skills and much needed understanding to create a sense of community and belonging. KNOWING that we are here to Make A Difference is essential!
