Making just one person feel good :-)
Hello fellow WA members :-)
When you get up each morning do you ever think to yourself, "If I could just make one person happy, how would it make me feel?" It doesn't matter what it is. Whether it's helping someone here in Wealthy Affiliate, at work, home, school, at the mall, or in a restaurant, do you go out of your way to help someone?
I feel we were put on this earth to help one another out and not suffer the violence and negative aspects of life. More people should stop and think before they do something. Is what I'm going to do, going to hurt someone or help them and make them feel good?
For me, it's just an awesome feeling if I did something to brighten a person's day up and see the look on their face of happiness. You cannot put a price on that, ever!
Just one example: My wife and I were in a restaurant and the waitress was exceptionally sweet and polite and professional. When I went to pay the bill, in addition to leaving a nice tip, I separately handed her a $10 bill and told her this was for her because she deserved it and she did! The look on her face was worth the feeling that I had because I knew that she also felt good.
This is not about me. This is about going to sleep that night knowing I did make someone feel good and even though she may not remember it after many years at least she felt good for one day!
It's the same thing here in Wealthy Affiliate. Let's all try and do at least one thing that someone special can have if only for one day. You'll make a difference! I'd be curious to know if there are others out there who agree and have experienced the same thing.
Thanks for reading! You all have a wonderful night and great success to you!
Cheers!

I agree with you Rob. Reaching out to others with good intentions and a smile is a very good thing. I make sure I smile and make eye contact with at least 3 people a day. My teens and I play a game of seeing how many people will wave and smile back at us when we are driving to school. It's fun and it gives us all a great start to the day.
Love your name Becalm! You have the right attitude! You may now pass "go" and collect your $200! Thank you! :-)
I always want to share anything that is positive. I'm glad I got to share it with you. Thumbs up!
Thumbs up for your post! It seems there's so much breaking down of others, instead of trying to help or lift them up. Kindness goes a long away, and I'd much rather be kind to others than the other way around.
People would react so differently if they were talked TO rather than talked DOWN TO, right? :-) It makes a difference and to prove it, don't ever give up on this awesome community! :-)
Very nice article and well put. I have had a recent experience with a top member here scolding and berating a new user for what they said were "breaking the rules". My comments about supporting instead of scolding fell on deaf ears.
Your story rings true of the support that gives people motivation and makes them also care about others.
All the Best,

Well breaking rules is sometimes not intentional and you have to take it with a grain of salt as they say. There are people who care. Here for you if you need anything and smile and keep on going!! :-)
Welp, just getting started. I'm setting up my 1st website using the free domain option with an .siterubix.com domain. I have a couple issues though.
1. I have to use wordpress. Never used it before, so I feel like a dog wearing shoes.
2. Sleepy..... I'm having long hours at work and everything in between is crazy.
Hey Josh, We've all been there in the beginning. In time it becomes habit. Don't fight the information overload. Easy does it and take your time and walk away when you need a break!

Good philosophy on life.
I think it's the most important philosophy in life. There's no better. The world gets better every time another person follows it! :-)
