Improving Yourself and the World Through Kindness

Everyone has heard of people doing random acts of kindness, and paying kind acts forward without expecting anything in return for themselves. The payout or payoff as many self help people would say is that they get a good feeling and make their own lives happier just by doing kind acts for others. If you are kind to yourself, kind to others, and kind and gentle to the earth, as Michael J. Chase has said in speaking engagements, your life will be better. Also your relationships are sweeter and your health is much improved.

If you have not heard of Michael J. Chase you are in for a real treat. He admits that his life and his personal world were less than kind, in fact they were hard and harsh. After some difficult times, trials, and real soul searching, Mr. Chase literally stumbled on something one day that did change his life. Later it was also possible for him to teach this to others. He wrote a book that helps the reader to discover his own philosophy about being kind and showing kindness.

In “Am I Being Kind” you will discover how asking yourself this one little question can change your life, and the world. Mr. Chase does say in his speeches that being kind is much more than “being nice” to others. When you take your own journey into self-discovery and self-inquiry you too can enrich your own life with boundless joy. Helping others just by leaving extra money in a vending machine to pay for someone’s snack is kind. Taking fresh baked cookies to city workers as a treat is kind.

Letting someone cut ahead of you in line is another small yet kind action. It is very easy to perform these good deeds, yet the reward for committing them is huge. The helpful person feels a great sense of good and well-being, while recipients are reminded that others will go out of their way to think about and assist strangers. In turn, they are much more inclined to perform a good deed of their own, which causes a wave of kindness that moves from person to person. Greater happiness has a beneficial impact on the entire world. Spreading positivity gives a feeling of joy to all involved.

Even if you’re depressed and feel like you have nothing to give to others, you should realize that this is not true. The next time you have that negative attitude, turn it around by doing something kind for someone else. Share positive feelings, and in turn you will feel more positive about yourself and your life, and so will those around you. Everyone benefits when people are kind.
