A pause to make me think, smile, breathe, feel good or better!
Smile Therapy is a constant in my day to day life .It allows me to stop for a minute and think…about things I may not have.
Smile Therapy gives me the opportunity for a quick shot of encouragement, or a chance for a reflective thought, without forcing it upon me. I can chose to read it if, and when, I want.
Smile Therapy causes me to stop and think, invariably providing support for a positive mental attitude and mindset for now and forever.
Smile Therapy has given me inspiration to enjoy life more and inspire others in my life.
A chance to read things that are positive, creative and fun and have interesting articles that I can share with others.
When I have been a good girl and taken the time to read it, it had been inspirational!!!!
Smile-Therapy is a great “pick me up” tool with its messages of encouragement, wisdom and laughter. It’s also a wonderful resource network for info on discounts, coupons, recipes, useful tips, etc..
Inspiration when I am down, a push when I need it, appreciation for my life and my gifts received from Jesus, great stories of people overcoming huge obstacles and love that people have for each other – that they will sacrifice all for their loved ones. WOW – great stuff!
To be more positive than I am.
Over this past year, Smile Therapy has been a fun and uplifting start to each day as well as confirmation of my opinion that a person can never be TOO nice!
A refreshing difference in my day – something positive to counteract so much of the negative.
I look forward to my Smile Therapy email every day! It really helps get me through that “dull” part of the afternoon.
The daily emails I receive from Smile-Therapy remind me that ultimately, I am the only one responsible for my attitude and behaviors every day. But, some days, I need those reminders.
A happy thought to start the day, inspiration to count my blessings and a smile in the afternoon!
This is difficult. Depending on the day, a laugh, a smile, a thought, even a tear, but always- perspective on what is important. Thank you.
Smile Therapy puts the important things into perspective for me; both personally and professionally.
A little uplift to the day.
Over the last year, Smile Therapy has provided me with multiple opportunities to share a positive message with my family, friends and colleagues – helping to spread the joy!
Great pick me up each day, gets my mind to reflect and find perspective, extremely positive for me.
Nice positive micro messages.
Happiness, smiles and a feeling that there is still good in this world
Smiles, laughs, positive thoughts and uplifting stories.
I don’t always have the chance to read Smile-Therapy daily, but when I do, the story always seems to apply directly to how I’m feeling or what I’ve experienced. Thank you to S-T for sharing a story to brighten my day…right when I need it!
Inspiration on demand!
A resource that I can go to when I’m looking for inspiration, a pick-me-up or some training material Thanks Tim!
Smile Therapy is the one source of positivity I can count on– to enhance my mood and attitude each and every day.
Smile Therapy is what starts my day. A positive thought, idea, story to start my day in a positive way!
Smile Therapy provides me a daily reminder that life is what you make it by the choices you make – I choose love.
In the last year, smile therapy has meant a “break in the action” to me.(It’s given me a few minutes of turning everything off, and just reading/listening to something uplifting).
A consistently positive, and often times, informative mind shifter!!
The Grand Poobah is alive and well and living his dream. Amen!
Inspiring and refreshing.
Peace of mind for 5 minutes.
Fun stuff. I enjoy the jokes and inspirational stories.
Smile Therapy has assisted me with the tools and references to look at any situation from a different perspective and always see the positive….
When I have had time to open them, they have been uplifting and sometimes inspirational.
A smirk on my face and a nod in agreement.
What has Smile-Therapy meant to me over the last 365 days? It has meant a literal life-line. Smile-Therapy connects me to my inner self and enables me to sail life’s seas with a compass of fun, enlightenment, humor, hope and self-belief. Smile-Therapy is what the world needs most – especially during these unsure times. It is a joyous panacea for life.
Thank YOU for being committed to your mission/passion in life and sharing it with others to create a more loving connective smiling community!
Still going through divorce stuff and that can be tough but many times something you post on your site puts a smile on my face or inspires me. Good job Tim.
Daily positive reinforcement and reaffirmation of the items in life that are important, allows me at least for 30 seconds to realize that work is not the most important item on today’s agenda.
It’s been a pat on the shoulder, a refreshing reminder of who I am and what’s really important in my life, without a sermon or a lecture. The jokes are hilarious. I’m doing well with my lung condition. Thank you for your kindness and friendship.
Smile Therapy has lifted me up when I am down during the day and also given me insights into happenings and behaviors of others so perhaps I can view things from a different perspective.
A daily dose of Smile-Therapy is an injection that starts the day with a smile, which becomes who we are after a while.
Smile Therapy has motivated me, enlightened me, brightened my day, and provided me with numerous stories to pass on to my students.
Because of Smile-Therapy’s positive daily messages, not only does everyday start off on a happy note, but my outlook on many situations has changed and it has helped me to remember what is important in life. Once you start, there’s no going back…I’m hooked!!
Don’t give up, ever…even if sometimes the biggest obstacle in my life is myself.
Smile-Therapy is just what I needed to get through the day.
Smile Therapy makes me smile as I take a break from the serious business of life.
It has provided some poignant quotes (some of which I posted to my Facebook page) and some commentary, which I have shared with coworkers.
Staying in touch with you! On a serious note, just a reminder that life is short & we need to be thankful for what we have and appreciate life-it’s precious.
Inspirational and leadership messages that help me to be a better person and to put a smile on my face.
I’ve mentioned this before, but we find value with the lift that it provides our patients. Patients in a hospital, especially a geriatric mental health unit often suffer from depression prior to coming and sometimes a daily uplifting message/optimistic thought can improve their mood.
I’d have to say Smile-Therapy is like the bumpers in a bowling alley. Whenever my mood starts to stray toward the gutter, I get an email from this cool dude called the Grand Poobah of Smiles and I get re-centered so I can hit my goals!
ST reinforces my intention to have a great day and to share that great day with others.
Smile - Therapy has made me stop, slow down, think about, help keep a positive aura, appreciate and realize just how lucky I am with my family, my home, my friends and my career, as well as reaffirm that there is much good in our life; we must keep our hearts and minds open to just receive it and to accept it, and then hopefully be wise enough to pass it on.The center/core/nucleus of Smile – Therapy obviously has achieved its mission by sharing and passing on the creator’s knowledge and goodness. Thank you!
It keeps me pointed North when the rest of the world seems to be going South.
Over the last 365 days, Smile-Therapy has reminded me to think more, listen more, work better, and… has made me a better father, friend and employee!
Smile-Therapy helps to inspired our staff to remain positive… in a not so positive world.
Insight, reflection, an occasional light moment and attitude adjustment on a hectic day, and inspiration for several key employee meetings.
Smile-Therapy has been uplifting, enlightening, and heart warming, it encourages me to put a positive spin on the negativity that seems so prevalent today.
S/T has provided me with a variety of “ real life” situations, as well as S-T advising how other humans have dealt with those situations, as they have come up. I have found many of these situations appearing in my own life ; S-T has given me ideas as to how those situations might best be handled.
Smile-Therapy has meant a bright spot to look forward to especially when some days have been most difficult.
It helps me to be a better person – to be positive and to be more aware of how I treat others.
A good positive feeling for the new day!
Smile therapy gives my every day an auspicious beginning with positive, encouraging, inspiring, and fun information.
Knowing that every morning you sit down early with a message to start everyone’s day with a bit of humor or wisdom … kudos for getting up early out of a nice warm bed and getting on your computer and helping us start our days.
I don’t know if you recall, but our work environment was so toxic and dysfunctional that even though I loved the work, the environment was causing me spiritual and physical damage. You offered “Smile Therapy” and indeed it has been remarkably healing! We work diligently now to make this a positive environment in all aspects. It definitely takes some work and time, but I am so grateful to be part of a team. As a whole, we are a happy, productive and enthusiastic team. This positive energy spills over into all we do and makes for some very rewarding experiences. Hats off to the Grand Poobah!
Smiling inspiration, daily.
It has been informative, uplifting and entertaining.
In one sentence: Smile Therapy, as necessary as coffee to give you that morning lift!
Nice thoughts.
Smile Therapy has been a daily, positive, uplifting engine starter.
As you know I tend to be on the negative side despite all my blessings. Reading positive thinking statements sometimes helps me refocus and appreciate. Thanks.
Smile Therapy is a means to making a difference in my life by helping me see things from a fresh, positive, unselfish point of view.
I enjoy some of the topics, but do not read daily. The topics that do catch my attention leave me feeling positive and hopeful.
Tim, simply put, I get out of bed each work day looking forward to seeing your ST post. It helps me laugh and stay positive. Thanks for introducing me to ST.
In such a stressful environment, Smile Therapy offers me a minute or two to smile, laugh, and reflect…
It means a chuckle or a thought .. as well as a ever-present reminder of my friend Tim’s bulletproof attitude.
It’s always a bright spot amongst the onslaught of other emails that bog down our day.
I enjoy it, especially when I need to be happier.
Smile-Therapy has been a daily reminder of the goodness that exists in a world where technology gives us instantaneous access to huge amounts of horrible news. In one word: refreshing.
To me it means that no matter how bad the day may be, the S-T emails give me a breath of fresh air. Instead of Calgon take me away; S-T takes me away.
Smile-Therapy can be a bright spot in an otherwise ordinary, stressful, or chaotic day!
Fuel to maintain a positive mental attitude in all situations both professional and personal.
In the last 365 days Smile Therapy has reminded me that life’s about more than sitting back and letting dice roll as it will. It’s nire a game of table tennis(ping pong) where the ball comes over the net to you, and you have to try to hit it back over the net.
A little reprieve/uplift from the grind of the work day!
It has acted as a reminder to stay focused on what is important.

Thoughtful inspiration with a smile. And I’m going to trademark that line. Keep smiling!
I like the Monday morning jokes because they make me laugh out loud. I already think too much ;-).
Positive outlook on a daily basis.
To elaborate, it has made me think on a more human being level vs just a business level. Help people solve their problems and not use them to solve your own.
Consistent Daily Kickstart.
Positive uplifting messages and stories that make my day a little better!!!
Daily inspiration. Thank you!
Smile Therapy is my daily dose of wisdom, encouragement, humor, and reminders of what’s REALLY important in life. Keep up the good work Tim.
A lovely much needed distraction that often serves as a way to recalibrate myself.
Smile-Therapy gives me a much needed break in my crazy days where I KNOW I will read something positive and uplifting!

Inspiration, redirection, edification…
Smile-Therapy has given daily doses of Good and Positive Info in a world of a lot of bad and negative news. Keep up the Good Words.
Not every day do we stop and think outside the task at hand. You make us, once a day, stop and think about others and the human condition- nice pause.
