• November 2019

What happens when you ask someone: "What made you smile, today?" Try it with the next person you see with a name tag. Pause a moment, say their name and maybe add yours, and say, “Thank you Jackie. My name is Mark, what made you smile today?” Will something special happen? You can see it right now in your mind’s eye, can’t you? They smile back... Dr. Mark Goulston is the Founder of WMYST, What Made You Smile Today, a grass roots movement to make the world happier one WMYST at a time.
