Here some others in English:
- Give a sincere compliment.
- Let someone into your lane while you’re driving. 
- Hold the door open for a few extra seconds.
- Express your gratitude for what is too often taken for granted.
- Share some of your tasty homemade cookies. Or bread, ice cream or ...
- Give away a piece of your hobby. Like a bracelet or a drawing you have made for instance.
- Share some of your fall harvest. For example some jam, canned vegetables or dried delicious mushrooms or fruit.
- Encourage someone who is in a difficult situation at the moment.
- Tell a good – or terrible – joke. Or a funny story about something that happened to you last week.
- Share something funny you found online. Play one of your favorite clips from a stand-up show you love if you are out of jokes and good stories at the moment.
- Offer a plant, the joy can lasts for years.
- Give a hug. It unstresses and it can disrupt negative thoughts and change someone’s mood surprisingly quickly. Use when appropriate though.
- Cook their favorite food if they have had a bad day.
- Get their favorite takeout food. If you want a quicker option than cooking a meal.
- Smile. Even if you’re only spending 30 seconds on talking to the cashier in the supermarket checkout line.
- Run an errand or do one chore for that person. It can be big stress reducer if he or she is having a hectic day.
- Just listen. It’s sometimes all that’s needed to help someone out of a negative headspace.
- Bring a cup of tea or coffee the way that person likes it. It only takes a minute while you are already up and getting a hot beverage for yourself.
- Hide a secret note for him or her to find. A note of thankfulness. Or a note with a compliment. Or simply a note of love. Hide it in their tea container, lunch box or hat for example.
- Bring the positivity. If you bring positivity and an open, happy and good energy into a conversation for example then that tends to spread and the two of you or more will have happier lunch break, evening down at the pub or coffee date in the crisp autumn sunshine.
