Go The Extra Mile (Gem) Foundation

Go the Extra Mile - Being a second miler - If anyone asks you to go one mile, go with him or her two miles. On top of that, do it even if you aren't asked. Put forth a little extra effort. Go out of your way to help someone. REACH OUT. The stretch will do good to humanity and yourself. If somebody asks you for a lift part of the way home, go out of your way and take him right to his front door. "The more you reach out by extending yourself, the more people you'll influence for good." Second - Mile Rules for success Do something useful around the office, or house, or apartment without being asked. Give a little gift to someone not-so-special; it may make them feel special for the first time. Go out of your way to help someone; just be there when he or she needs you most. Pay a compliment to someone each day. Take a load off someone's back instead of being on someone's back. Do something for someone, or some cause, without expecting any pay for it. You can't walk a second mile sitting down. Here we extend our hands to those who deserve the most.
