Reflection On Kindness

“No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.” -Aesop. Kindness is a very important thing. If no one is kind, everyone is hostile, brief, angry, and there would be no happiness in the world. The people who try their hardest to be the absolute kindest that they can keep society functioning. If you do something small for someone, it can change their mindset for the entire day.

Identifying and understanding your own personal strengths is key to being a successful leader. Knowing your strengths means you can focus your efforts to maximize results, in yourself and in others. Strengths Finder 2.0 is designed to uncover your strengths and utilize these strengths to your advantage (Rath, 2007). Identifying and applying these strengths to your leadership style, will enhance your effectiveness as a transformational leader.

I have many strengths, which keep me going. Some of these strengths are my family, which I get a lot of support from, my persistence, and most importantly, my hard work. Although I have amazing strengths, I also have weaknesses. One of them is that I am very shy , sometimes. The other one is that I can be a bit of a perfectionist. I'll just try to fix all of my flaws and focus on the things I'd like to accomplish.

Based on the Clifton Strengths Assessment my top five strengths are strategic, deliberative, learner, maximize and individualization. As an individual, I rarely look into my weakness. I believe that when your too focused on your weakness, you forget about your strengths. Everything the book said is true, and we need to take the time to look at our strengths and make it perfect. It is true that in this world or the school system, we are taught to look at our weakness and correct it so that we can become stronger in our life. This book brings out the truth that I longed to hear for a long time. Invariably, I hear my professor tell their students that for them success in life, they must practice and look at our weakness. This book proves it wrong because for us to become successful, we must stay to our strengths’ path.

Social work is a commitment of service to the poor, a commitment to reaching out, and a deployment of support, advocacy, affection, trust, and empathy. (Margolin, 4) Caught in the Storm and Under the Cover of Kindness portray two drastically different views of the social work profession. While Caught in the Storm tells the story of the dedicated team at Helping Hands nonprofit agency as its staff navigate the process of acquiring grant funding in the wake of welfare reform, Under the Cover of Kindness challenges conventional understandings of social work by examining the underlying purpose of the profession.

Even just the smallest act of kindness can have a great impact on someone’s life. Kindness is showing concern for someone without expecting something in return. Jesse Jackson once said, “Never look down on anybody unless you’re helping him up.” He was a civil rights activist who expressed kindness to a great number of people. In Chicago, his kindness affected many people, but mostly women and African Americans in 1964. He showed kindness by leading many rallies and peaceful protests to accomplish his goal of making sure the rights of Americans were protected. If teens commit at least one act of kindness in their school or community every day, the world would be a better place.

Kindness. What does kindness mean to you? Today I'm going to tell my point of view of what kindness is to me. To start off, it means being caring to others no matter what kind. For example, if there is a mean person at work or school, and they look like they're having a hard time, help them. God created man to work with each other, not against. Joshua 2:12 says, "Now then, please swear to me by the Lord that you will show kindness to my family, because I have shown kindness to you. Give me a sure sign." This shows that you should treat others the way you want to be treated. Going back to the mean kid in school, just give them a smile so they can feel comforted. All they need is comforting and help. William Arthur Ward said, "A warm smile is

As Albert Schweitzer once said, “Constant kindness can accomplish much.” Kindness is important because it increases morale and makes success more attainable.

In education there are many times you are faced with hardships and trials that you may never think you can overcome but all it takes is a good attitude. I believe kindness can be shown through your attitude because

Some people may be familiar with this Bible verse in Proverbs 19:17 which says, “Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will repay him for his deed.” or this other Bible verse; “It is well with the man who deals generously and lends; who conducts his affairs with justice” from Psalm 112:5. They both talk about generosity in other words, kindness. In today’s world, people act in a way based on their morals, culture, logic or based on their religion. Some people have a belief that they should be kind to others because they might receive the same kindness back. But kindness is something much more than what people think it is. It is about acceptance regardless of differences, respect and giving without expectation.

Being kind is simple, kind words or actions could make someone’s day better. If teens try something kind everyday the world would be a better place. Kindness can be defined in many ways there are many different definitions but it means doing something nice for another person just to make their day. “Always be a little kinder than nessacary”- James m. Barrie. Is a great quote to follow students can always do something kinder than nessacary to make someone’s day better. James m. Barrie was the producer of Peter Pan before he died he gave the rights of Peter Pan works to Great Ormond Street Hospital for children. After he died all the movie funds went to the hospital. The kids got some of the money from the movie Peter Pan which was very kind.

It was in the middle of September and it was around this time bat colonies started to regroup after the females left to form nursery colonies. The younger bats, not quite adults, were working on perfecting their echolocation and hunting skills in the fall. In one bat colony, specifically a little brown bat colony, housed in a large cave in west Texas, was flourishing. One of the young bats found it a bit uncomfortable hanging upside down in the middle of the crowd. Colonies of little brown bats could be very large, up to the thousands. “Hey, Tiny!” A young bat called to the other. The uncomfortable young bat, turned his head to the sound. “Yes, Fang?” He responded. The bat, Fang, pushed himself through the other bats to

Kindness is Contagious What if every time someone smiled it would cure a deathly disease? Kindness means to do something nice and positive for someone that also makes his or her day better. “How beautiful a day can be when kindness touches it!” is a famous quote by George Elliston. Her act of kindness was done in 1946, the year she died.

Showing kindness will make a difference in the world. For example in the article “Teaching Kindness,” the author states “It's reported that even small acts of kindness heighten our sense of well-being, increase energy, and give a wonderful feeling of optimism and self worth.” This shows that everyone benefits from helping others. When you aid others you are not only helping them but you are also helping yourself. When you are in a better mood or feel better about yourself then others will feel better about you and themselves too.

By practicing random acts of kindness can lift us up to a genuine level because we able to leave no room for depression in our life. Firstly, we should develop a kinder and healthy perspective so that we able to spread our kindness to others. Beyond that, we should build a positive thought that kindness is not measured or calculated by generosity but it is grateful, loving and warm. In fact, we must care for others genuinely and do not do good deeds for the sake of expecting rewards or recognition as well as getting what we want. Kindness is all about deep caring for all beings and ask for nothing in return and comes with no strings attached plus it is unconditional. The thing concerning kindness is that it has its own bounty and will enhance our sense of well-being and
