The Importance of Voting for Say Thanks Every Day
Posted on January 13, 2009
The other day Bill Kinnon wrote a kind post about the Johnny Bunko contest in which I am a finalist. The vote continues through this Thursday, January 15.
I writing to ask that you vote for Say Thanks Every Day at the http://www.johnnybunko.com/contestballot/.
Here’s the deal. This is a contest about ideas. There are three ideas.
Mine - Say Thanks Every Day
and two others, Do It Now and Stay Hungry.
These ideas matter in different ways. They communicate values that are important for different reasons. The question for us is what values do we want to endorse and see affirmed in the public sphere.
The winning idea won’t just get a press release and then go away. It will be promoted in ways that will influence others.
It is my conviction that gratitude is a value that our world needs.
People around the country have written me to say they voted. They represent a silent majority of people who don’t believe that Doing It Now or Staying Hungry represents the way they choose to live.
I asking for all you in the Missional Tribe to vote for Say Thanks Every Day. Idon’t ask this lightly. I’m not asking you to vote for me. I am just the messenger in this story. The message of living a life of gratitude is important in itself. I’ve come to understand that we have an opportunity to Create a Revolution of Thanks and Welcome by doing so.
You can cast your vote until Midnight EST Thursday January 15 at http://www.johnnybunko.com/contestballot/.
Please also ask your family and friends to do the same.
