Are you a nice person? If yes, how is that working out for you?
It sounds lovely, right? Keep the peace. Don’t upset anyone. Being sweet and agreeable, always putting others first. But let’s be honest, how often does that leave you exhausted, resentful, and wondering why everyone else seems to get what they want?
As we celebrate World Kindness Day, I’d like to offer you a radical idea. What if being nice isn’t the same as being kind?
What if what most of us think is kindness is actually its sneaky, draining cousin, niceness? And what if I told you that true kindness is one of the most potent, most overlooked superpowers you possess, and it includes the willingness to say a powerful, earth-shaking ‘no’?
Curious? If yes, I go into this in more depth in an article I wrote recently for Brainz Magazine!
So, my friend, what if you stopped trying to be “nice”? What if, instead, you got to unleash your true kindness, the potent, world-shifting energy that can melt barriers, change lives, and stop abuse in its tracks?
Until we meet again!
