MY DAILY WOW: good things are usually random – case in point, to celebrate the World Kindness Day

When we plan things, we use our pre-frontal brain. We think.

When we use our intuition to take “random” decisions and “just do” things, we use our whole self. Which is the smarter version of ourselves.

We sometimes can be kind out of thinking. But it’s rarely the utmost kindness…because it stems from self-interest and intellectualization, which means that unless you’re an accomplished Buddha, you’ll not do an amazing job. Because your planned kindness is not backed-up by wisdom – the one that matters. Sometimes helping is not helpful.

But it’s always WOW how beautifully things fall into their place with random acts of kindness. Simply put, by just staying in the kindness zone, mentally, and only kindness can spread from there…towards yourself (that should always come first!) and ever-living being around you. The butterfly effect will do the rest.

So I thought I could best celebrate World Kindness Day not by planning a kindness deed, but by fixing my mind in this zone. Feeling better already 😉
