The best way to feel your best is to help others.
The best way to help others is by using three intangible, free, powerful and often underutilized tools; kindness, respect and admiration.
If you can show others kindness, respect and admiration, you will experience the ultimate high, build the best friendships and eventually, see the greatest success and happiness in your life.
How well do you show these right now? Probably not as well as you could.
If you are able to do these three things really well, you will receive them from others.
How should you use kindness? First, you must stop thinking about yourself and your own needs. Second, you must be aware of others feelings, sense of comfort and pride. Then you need to shape your actions towards other people around their feelings.
Try smiling more.
How should you attain genuine respect for others? Realize that everyone has value. Also realize that everyone is able to do something better than you. In that, you can learn from that person. If you can learn from someone, you can respect them.
How should you show admiration? As I mentioned, everyone is better than you at something. Identify someone else's strengths and give them recognition for it. Let people know you admire them and why. It is a rare treat to receive a genuine compliment.
Everyone needs to feel respected. Everyone feels validated when others are kind and proud when others admire them.
Your words and your actions either tear people down or build them up. - Joseph Norman
Every action you take with others has meaning and has an effect upon that person. Keep this in mind, and act with care and compassion.
Repeat: The best way to feel your best is to help others. Using kindness, respect and admiration is the easiest way to help others.
