The Little Big Things Project

Collectively changing the lives of others one small, but significant step at a time.

The Little Big Things matter. They really do. From times when your day goes from bad-to-good because someone notices your efforts or pays you a compliment, to life altering advice, encouragement, and support, the Little Big Things leave their mark on our lives in a multitude of ways.

The aim of the Little Big Things project is to create positive difference by purposefully enacting the Little Big Things guiding principles: giving, uplifting, and validating others.

You are invited to explore this website to read more about the research on Little Big Things, get ideas about how to weave these principles into your life, and to be inspired by legendary Little Big Things acts of others.

Remember, you are never too set in your ways, too mean, or too busy to do a Little Big Thing! Who knows what impact it might have…
