Most times we want to do good, and we want to care, there is this desire burning within that propel us to want to show a little bit of love and kindness to our world and there is this tinge for us to smile and spread sparkles and joy wherever we go.
But it is as sad as it is, Some days we wake up frowning without any hinge of mirth in our being, without any care for the slightest freckle about anyone, we do not just want to see our neighbors and we do not wish to be bothered, my roommate would say at that time, "Life has become per earpiece"
The irate fact about this is the kind of feeling we get throughout that day

- This feeling automatically sours our day
- For each time we brood as far as this, we repel even the air we breath, not to talk of our friends and family, though they might not tell us to our face.
- We destroy our health, and cause damage to a whole lot of things in our body systems
The list would be endless if I want to continue on the ills of how our demeanor and countenance affects every day of our life.
Wouldn't it be better if I tell you how awesome you can make each day and how better we could live our life and better our relationships?
- Give a smile to everyone, this medium works as much as easy as dissolving salt in water, the person with the smile radiate an unbeatable and unreasonable aura that attracts people to him or herself, say for instance two salesman approach me, trying to make me buy coffee
Scene 1
Salesman 1: (smiling).....
Hey Handsome, Good morning to you, Do you know you would really need a cup of my awesome coffee to make your day awesome and keep your brain active for just $2?
Salesman 2: (grumpy)
Hello sir, Good morning, Do you know a cup of coffee every morning keeps the brain active and provide your body with the necessary nutrients needed to fight stress, I could get you a cup for $2
Your guess is as good as mine whose cup of coffee I'll buy.
- Remember I said my roommate would most times say "life is per earpiece"? Come to think of of it, an earpiece has two ear plugs, each per earlobe, how about you listening with one ear and allowing your neighbor who doesn't have any earpiece to share an earplugs?

See the advantage, your eardrums wouldn't get a hit off and you could even listen for other sounds with the other ear while listening to life beats.
In a nutshell, if you could show kindness to another, you are altogether creating a pathway for your self in a way that you have never imagine, trust me on this one, I have tried it and it worked, it brightened and liven my day, I walked on my toes, you can too.
- Cut Out Criticism:
I remember I did write once about Criticism and it's I'll effect, I've heard of constructive criticism and how it pushes someone to bring out their best, but I am vehemently condemning Criticism in all its form, a person who grows with criticism learns to hate and bags inferiority complex no matter how hidden or small it might seem.
Instead of criticism, why not try admiration and praise, all human has a sense of ego and important and we strive daily to keep up with it, try seeing the good part of people and watch them strive to meet up to that good view, give people credit for their good work and see them toil not to tarnish the good name.
- Wear other people shoes:
I've found out that the best way to live a peaceful life and make good decisions that concerns other people is not to immediately throw in your dice, maybe if each of us can hold back out tongue from lashing back to someone who said a cuss word to us or does anything Ill towards our personality and try to imagine ourselves in that persons situation at that instance, who knows, maybe our reaction might even be worse.
Think of it, maybe your boss had a quarrel with his wife and is thoroughly at low ebb, that's why he raised his voice, maybe the child wouldn't listen to you teaching because he came to school hungry.

There might be valid reasons behind most action, if we can just try to seek out for them, maybe there would be a reduction in the amount of feud we experience. Even if there seem to be no reason, trying to assume a reason keeps you above the other person and provides serenity in the subconscious.
A soft answer turneth away wrath.
Validity:
I've been asked why I propagate this method vastly. That it denotes weakness and gives most people a wrong impression.
My answer is still the same
A leader who doesn't lead by serving is a follower.
It is only those people who give value to people that get value, try reaching out in the most positive way you can around you and watch it come back.

Each of us has good and bad days. But for the most part it's not as bad as it may seem. Our mind plays with us a cruel joke, forcing you to feel like come the end of everything. But, fortunately, each of us has the opportunity to instantly transform a bad day, looking at the events in terms of prospects.
Sure, our everyday happiness depends on ourselves, it is an inside job.
Fact
To lead you must serve
It is the only way of expert leadership.
Proverb 15:1
You just made my day
thank you,
I am glad it touched you
It is only people who give value to people that get value... Learn to love the people around you..
I love this piece..
Thanks @masterpiz and @prechi u guys rock!!!
Our king of bees @kingbee
Its a boomerang cycle, you give good, you get good, you give bad, your guess is as good as mine 😀
Sometimes criticism goes a long way in making someone a better person. It all depends on the approach and delivery.
It would be unfair to give praises to someone who's clearly going the wrong direction. That will only make you a fake person.
You can always criticize/correct someone in a mild way. With a smile and words of encouragement.
All we need is love!!
there is a story of a complaining parents :
we have tried all measures possible to get tour boys to change those awful ways, they did wrong and deserve punishment, don't they?
sometimes we refuse to give them food,and beat them, or mostly we speak sternly about this way of living to them in private, that is the best of constructive criticism I could give, but all this medium did nothing, I mean virtually nothing.
Then we decided to try admiration, we praised only the good things they did, and you know how difficult it is to see something good, when you've already written that person off, but we tried our best, little by little, they now wanted to live up to the expectations of our praises, Now it works like magic, though everything isn't as perfect as we want, our boy now live the good lifestyle expecting our commendation, and we do not hold back we give it lavishly.
Hmmn
Beautiful piece as always....
For every action, there's always a reason behind it.
Though sometimes, not valid, it's still a reason.
We don't know what people go through everyday, yet we make hasty judgement about them when they falter.
Rightly put there, a soft answer does turns away wrath but sometimes, it's almost difficult to give a soft answer after been spoken to harshly....
The good and bad things attached with life yeah
Thanks so much for this piece.
I had to drool over it again and again.
Sometimes, I just think @masterpiz is an old man...lol
That's on a lighter note though.
Great piece, I must confess.
Thanks so much for sharing.
All hail the king of the bees...
It ain't so much difficult to start giving soft answer to harsh replies.
I believe everything can be learned.
Old man with baby face!
latest trend!😃😃😃
Steembees, kingbees 🙌🙌
It is just individuals who offer an incentive to individuals that get esteem... Figure out how to love the general population around you..
I cherish this piece..
Much obliged @prechi, u r too good
Our lord of honey bees @kingbee
There is this joy that flows in us each time we show an act of kindness to someone. In effect you get more by sharing. Powerful piece from the bee of all whale.
