Summary
After 30+ years studying human behavior, I’ve discovered something amazing – we’re naturally wired to help each other. Your daily acts of kindness aren’t small. They’re proof.
The story
I’ve been studying human behavior since 1990, and here’s what blows my mind – people are naturally good.
Sure, we get caught up in our daily stress. We scroll past news that makes us feel helpless. We forget how powerful simple kindness can be.
But watch what happens when someone drops their groceries in a parking lot. Or when a neighbor’s power goes out. Or when a stranger looks lost.
People help. Without thinking. Without expecting anything back.
In my practice groups, I’ve watched thousands of people discover this truth about themselves. We’ve run 650+ meetings, and every single time, participants leave amazed at their own capacity for generosity.
The science backs this up too. Our brains are literally wired for empathy. We mirror each other’s emotions automatically. We feel good when we help others because that’s how we’re designed.
Your daily acts of kindness – holding a door, listening to a friend, letting someone merge in traffic – these aren’t small things. They’re proof of your natural goodness showing up.
The world needs more people who remember this about themselves.
If you want to dive deeper into understanding how empathy actually works and how to strengthen yours, check out “A Practical EmPath Rewire Your Mind.” It’s everything I’ve learned about turning our natural compassion into a superpower.
Your kindness matters more than you know.
