Little Gems of Wisdom & Fun from Mary Lynn Ziemer
Every word you share and every action you take carries more power than you realize. Your influence doesn’t end with the person standing in front of you—it ripples outward to an entire network of people you may never even meet. (Actually, around 1,000 to be precise!)
Extraordinary research shows that our influence actually extends to people up to at least three degrees. While this may not sound like much, it adds up! Researchers estimate that nearly 1,000 people could be touched by a single choice, a single smile, or a single kind gesture. So, one moment with one person could actually end up affecting 1,000 lives!
These studies also prove that much of our behavior is literally contagious. So, when you consciously choose to think, speak, and act in positive and happier ways, you are unconsciously shaping the behavior of an incredible number of people in the same way.
An incredible way to impact the world, feel love for you, and share it with others, is to practice random acts of kindness. These are simply unexpected, yet very powerful gestures of kindness to brighten someone’s day.
To help you get started, here are 3 random acts of kindness for you to try out today and everyday.
1. Inspire, encourage, and uplift others. Inspire someone! Say a kind word and share a new, supportive perspective that someone might not see about themselves. Reinforce their talents, unique gifts, and personal strengths.
2. Show someone your appreciation. A little recognition can make a world of difference in someone’s life. Right now, pick up your phone, or open your email, and contact just one person today. Let them know that you are grateful for them and that you appreciate having them in your life, or share a specific thing they have done or a positive quality that you are thankful for.
3. Smile at strangers and speak a few words of kindness. By simply smiling, you are passing along the greatest contagion… joy! Mirror neurons in our brains light up, causes us to smile when we see others smile, and everyone's happiness level rises. Now, add some caring and kind words and you’ve enhanced the feeling of love and joy for everyone involved.
So, pass along these simple acts of kindness every day and see the beautiful ripple effect unfold. Then, watch as you create an amazing tidal wave of kindness!
Have an absolutely magical week full of love, gratitude and fun, fun, FUN!
