Sunday Good Deed

Sunday Good Deed

Today’s thought is related to Motivational Secret #53:Do one good thing for one person”; but it is a bit different in scope. Today’s secret is:  Strive to do a good deed every day. It can be one good thing for a single person, but it can also be anything that helps anything or anyone: a person, a group of people, or a cause.

Here is a short list of synonyms for “good deed”: act of grace, act of kindness, benefaction, benefit, benevolence,   benignity, blessing, courtesy, favor, good offices, good turn, grace, kind deed, kind offices, kindly act, kindness, etc… you get the idea. It can be as simple as returning a grocery cart that someone left in the middle of a handicapped parking space, or allowing someone in front of you in traffic. It could be picking up piece of trash and depositing it in a garbage can (improving the environment for everyone). The possibilities are limitless.

So look for ways to perform some kind of good deal on a daily basis. This will become a habit if you do it every day (and dancers are very familiar with creating habits!).

From the Big Blue Book of Ballet Secrets:

Motivational Secret #59:  
“Strive to do a good deed every day.”
