If you are looking for an interesting sociology experiment that you can conduct easily and as quickly as this very instant - look no further!
Starting right now, be on the look out for "acts of kindness" by anyone you encounter during your day! I mean true acts of generosity and kindness.
When you do witness one, I want you to resolve to MATCH that act with an act of your own!
In addition - if you go a half of a day without witnessing an act of kindness by someone, Resolve to step up and find a way to conduct one yourself!
It can be as small or as large as you wish - it doesn't matter the size of the act -- JUST ACT!
This is the secret to happiness ---- STOP focusing on your own worries, troubles, issues, problems, etc and SHIFT the FOCUS to making someone else's life BETTER!!
I know it seems difficult - and it may take several attempts before you can make the transition. But YOU CAN DO IT!!
Making someone else's life better can be accomplished as easily as a smile to someone on the train, the elevator, the street -- stopping to help someone with directions - commenting on someone's dress (go easy here - HR is always lurking - lol) - hairdo -- singling someone out who may be having a terrible day and just offering to LISTEN!
The key here is GETTING INVOLVED!!! Do not leave it to the "other guy" to help, or to ACT!
YOU LEAD THE WAY! Lead the way with compassion, kindness, and support! There is no Stronger person than one operating with these principles as their guidance system!
If you do this just for one day -- make it a GOAL - YOU will love the way it makes you feel!
You will be amazed at how miniscule and smaller your own issues seem when your GOAL is to HELP others with their problems!
You will not go unrewarded!
Stay Strong!!
