The Power of a Random Act of Kindness
How can you make the world a little bit better today and every day? Why not be nice to a stranger every day? Be creative! Every now and then I pay for two coffees instead of the only one that I drank and tell the server to save it, in case somebody needs it and can’t pay for it entirely. In the supermarket if I get a 10% discount voucher for my next shopping trip I usually give it to the person behind me in line (the cashiers don’t like that…)
You can offer your seat in the train or subway to somebody or even just gift somebody with a smile. Acknowledge people sincerely, treat people great, say thank you genuinely, hold the door open for somebody, help somebody whose hands are full to carry something, or store away somebody’s heavy hand luggage on your next flight. Be creative! Start today!
The great thing is: “What goes around comes around.” So when you start doing random acts of kindness, more kindness is coming back to you! Doing good begins to become the same thing as feeling good. The good that we do for others really does have the power to change us.
If you want to improve the world start with yourself! Be the change you want to see in the world! Do at least ONE random act of kindness every day. Positively and significantly impact the lives of other people.
PAY IT FORWARD!
