Kindness Multiplies Kindness
Many times my default mode can be grumpiness, being curt, or rude. I have to work on being kind. I believe kindness is a learned skill that requires practice and rewiring your brain to think kindness instead of rudeness.
A simple place to start is by saying please and thank you.
This reminds me of the Chick-fil-A I visit near my house. The staff has been trained to say " my pleasure" anytime they are asked to for something. I know as a customer this makes me feel as if they value me as a customer, and is very kind.
The words please and thank you are words of kindness that in a small way tell the others that you value them.
Questions to think about
Are you in the habit of saying please when you ask someone for something?
When someone lets you go in traffic do you signal them a thank you?
Do you tell your mom or significant other thank you the last time they cooked for you?
