You have been challenged! You CAN make a difference. You possess the power to change the world, but it starts with one random act of kindness at a time.
Join idontstink.com to engage in extreme acts of kindness. And I don’t mean doing one kind act and stopping there. I mean dedicating some serious time to doing kind acts every day starting on January 1, 2011 and ending on March 31, 2011. In a time when negative news seems to be the norm, let’s give them something good to talk about!
The Kindness Challenge of giving half of something is to raise awareness and the overall positive energy of both the givers and receivers of the kind deeds. But another SA-WEET advantage is that science has proven that anyone who just witnesses the kind act benefits too! Talk about a win-win situation!
Find a way to be kind today, and then log all your kind deeds on the Kindness Meter by clicking the barrel below!
Coming Soon! |
How do I start?
1) Click on the barrel above.
2) Set up a user account if you do not have one yet (It’s FREE!). All that is needed is your name and email address. If you are under age 13, follow the instructions to get parent or guardian’s approval.
3) After logging in, review the categories of kind deeds. There are 8 to choose from and over 170 different kind acts. This will allow the kindness ideas to start flowing.
4) Identify something that you can give half of. Ex. Your daily morning coffee, time spent on the internet time daily or weekly, time spent playing on your iPhone or PDA device, time spent watching TV, etc. Then, give half of whatever it is. If it is your time, spend the new time doing kind deeds, helping out at a homeless shelter, soup kitchen, or simply sending unexpected eCards to friends and family. If it is your morning coffee, skip it every other day and put that money in a jar or find a homeless person to give it to.
5) Do the kind deed and come back to idontstink.com. Login to your kindness meter and add your kind act.
6) Watch your very own kindness meter grow each time you log a kind act.
7) Repeat as often as you can through August 31, 2010 and watch the world start to change from your viewpoint.
