April 14 - National Reach As High As You Can Day

Happy National Reach As High As You Can Day! On April 14,this day encourages us to evaluate our goals and do our best to reach them. 

We can each define “reach” in many ways. Search Guinness World Records® for highest reach and they give us three hundred and twenty-two results!  

We can reach for our dreams or our goals. Reach for the stars or the sky. We can even reach for the balloon floating away from us much like the one that carried the Wizard of Oz (Frank Morgan) away from Dorothy (Judy Garland). 

Of course, records can be set for the oldest or the youngest to reach a particular location, age, height or status.   

While this day may not be about setting records, it is certainly about reaching high; higher than we think we can.  We often become complacent. National Reach as High as You Can Day is just a reminder on the calendar not to let your dreams go adrift.  

Reach for them. Reach as high as you can! 

HOW TO OBSERVE 

What are your goals? No matter how high they are, you can reach for them. And once you get there, set another goal! Encourage others to Use #ReachAsHighAsYouCanDay to post on social media. 

HISTORY 

National Day Calendar® continues to reach for the origin of this national day. However, until they do, they’ll keep you informed of other great ways to #CelebrateEveryDay! 

How will you reach for your goals today?
