Doing laundry for a stranger at the Laundromat, dorm, apartment
Carrying groceries for a stranger
Buying a few gallons of gas for a stranger
Wear your clothes backwards for a day
Every time someone asks, “how are you?” answer them honestly – do this for 3-4 days and keep a log of the reactions

Go to the market and stand in line backwards
Buy something with cash and when the clerk gives you change refuse
Stand backwards in an elevator
Go to the mall and ask someone if they would like a dollar
Stand in a crowded area of the mall and do nothing for 20 minutes)
