Here’s your weekly reminder to look for and deliberately create pockets of joy in your daily life.

Kindness thoughts

People often say, “Kindness costs nothing,” but it sometimes takes extra effort.

In my opinion, it’s always worth it.

Every kind thought. Every kind act sends out positive energy into the world.

I want to add kindness to the world, and yes, I have to be deliberate about this.

Here’s an example. I like to watch the news. I enjoy politics (mostly), but let’s face it, the news and politics can seem very negative at times.

So whenever I hear or see something I don’t like or feels negative, I deliberately choose kindness.

I choose to think something kind.

This could be as simple as…

“I wish for peace and kindness in this situation.”
or,
“I expect to see peace and kindness.”

Look, you might be reading this and thinking, but Wendy, what good will that do? I’m just one person.

Yes, you are, and so am I. But let’s say 100 people read this post and give it a go. That’s 100 people all putting kind, positive energy out into the world.

And let’s say that 10 of you reading this post share these thoughts with more people, this creates more and more positive energy.

Sure. I might write this post, and only 3 people read it. I will still focus on kindness.

We are all responsible for our thoughts and the energy we put out. It always matters.

We never really know how our kindness impacts others and the world.

What normally happens is we see or hear something negative, and we add to that negative energy.

I do it too from time to time, but I try to be very conscious about this and as soon as I notice that I’m putting out negativity, I shift my focus and it does take effort.

I always think it’s worth it.
