  • INTERVIEWER: You're already invited.

  • A simple message that could invoke excitement if

  • found in a Hallmark card.

  • But it's something that seems much more mysterious when

  • taped the window of an airplane traveling

  • 30,000 feet in the air.

  • But it turns out there's a very good reason for this note.

  • TAYLOR: Hi, my name is Taylor Tippett.

  • I am from North Carolina.

  • I am a fight attendant for a major airline,

  • and I'm currently based out of DC.

  • INTERVIEWER: Taylor wrote this note and decided to tape

  • it on the window one day while working.

  • She took the quote from one of my favorite books,

  • using it as a quick source of motivation for that day.

  • TAYLOR: And so you're already invited was just a pick-me-up.

  • Like, you're already invited to kill this day, to nail it,

  • to have the best day ever.

  • It's already set up for you.

  • You just have to go do it.

  • So that was the encouragement behind that specific word

  • from the window seat.

  • INTERVIEWER: Words from the window seat

  • became something Taylor did regularly.

  • Whenever she felt inspired, she'd

  • write a quote a piece of paper and tape it to the window.

  • It soon became a hit on Instagram,

  • where she amassed over 85,000 followers,

  • and spawned a hashtag and copycats.

  • TAYLOR: If I'm not encouraging and inspiring others,

  • what am I doing with my life?

  • What am I doing with my time here?

  • I'm not doing anything.

  • I'm wasting it.

  • For my voice to matter, and for other people

  • to connect, or feel loved, or just feel understood and heard,

  • that is all that matters to me.

  • INTERVIEWER: And Taylor also I respects her medium.

  • She understands it has its boundaries

  • and may be best taken in via the internet, and not as a surprise

  • when you take your seat.

  • TAYLOR: I've had some cases, even friends of mine,

  • where they tape that note up, and people freak out,

  • because-- they're like, what is this?

  • Like, somebody left this.

  • This is not supposed to be here.

  • Once I'm done taking my picture, I'll

  • tape it in the safety card for the passenger to find it,

  • or for the next passenger to find it, as a little--

  • just a pick-me-up.

  • INTERVIEWER: Taylor doesn't do this to be famous,

  • or for the recognition.

  • She writes these notes for the same reason she

  • likes being a flight attendant.

  • TAYLOR: There's nothing like your office being in the sky,

  • and flying on a metal tube, and meeting 300-plus people a day,

  • and just knowing that your smile and your kindness matters.
