Every morning I usually wake up with one thought on my mind- coffee. Once it’s percolating, I come back for my boys and get them ready for the day. Then I start to think about what chores I need to do for the day.
Tom’s of Maine has a new facebook app, Good First, that reminds us of some great ways to start the day in a positive way. Tom’s of Maine is a company I love, because they make safe tooth paste for my son to use, and other products I buy for my family, so I’m not surprised they care enough to remind us about making a difference.
Tom’s of Maine Good First application on Facebook works really easily. Simply sign in to the app and click on the button that answers the question, What did you put first today that made you feel especially good?
The options reflect Tom’s of Maine’s core belief in healthy, human and environmental goodness:
- Helping People
- Helping Animals
- Healthy Eating
- Healthy Living
- Caring for Mother Earth
Every morning I eat healthy and take care of my boys, but that is easy for me to do (habit) and the Good First app reminds me to think a little more beyond my usual routine, to other ways I can do good. When you answer, you are rewarded with a corresponding badge of honor on your timeline. You can see what your friends also chose your answer, and at the end you can sign up for a free sample of their new, effective (clinically proven) Tom’s of Maine Naturally Dry antiperspirant for women (the first antiperspirant stick made entirely from ingredients derived from nature).
After realizing I’ve been picking the same things day after day, I started to think more about the other options. This morning when I woke up, some of my first thoughts were about taking some time to get my recycling done today, and to make sure I buy products with more earth-friendly packaging when I am at the market this afternoon, because it’s time I care a little bit more about Mother Earth. Seeing that option on the Good First app morning after morning made me realize I need to do my part too.
What are ways good people can do good things every day that make a difference?

I like to do small things, that let others go before me in the grocery line or let someone in while driving. I also love Tom’s Of Maine products!
I love Tom’s of Maine. 🙂
I think the best thing is to be nice to others.
This is so neat. I’ll have to head over and test it out.
I love the reflecting on good things you’ve done..,
I have seen that showing up in my FB stream but didn’t realize what it was — cool!
People can live their lives as examples and put friends and family first.
Like Marcie said, it’s the little things. Letting people go in front in the grocery line, waiting at a stop sign for someone else to go first.
How fun! I see some faces I recognize too so I need to check it out. I am always looking for ways to add positive ideas into my life!
Thanks for sharing, I love getting samples.
Sometimes when we go through a drive thru somewhere, we pay for the order of the car behind us.
My son loves Tom’s toothpaste!
Most of my days start with turning on my computer so I can check my email.
How cool is that.
