Oprah talks of "Random Acts of Kindness." This first time I ever heard her say this I thought - what a great concept.
I don't know if this originated with Oprah or someone else - I just heard it first on Oprah.
But there is something even MORE special than such a kindness. And that is an EFFECTIVE random act of kindness.
How many times have you wanted to help someone? (What a loaded question!).
Have you ever had a friend who needed someone to listen to, or some moral support, and you were there, even though it was inconvenient and might even have cost you something else you really wanted, to be there and help them?
But did it really help? Were they back down in the dumps again over the same thing a short time later?
That's where effective comes in.
If you'd like to add "effective" to the subject, check out the Scientology Handbook.
I bet you'll find something on that site that helps you REALLY help others.
