I am feeling better today and I thought that I should do more than one good deed today. I have decided that all day today I am going to walk up to random people on campus and ask them how their day is going and just try to spark different conversations with others today. I feel like this is going to help me to step out of my comfort zone and to break out of being shy. I want others to see that sometimes it is good to just ask someone how they are doing because you never know if you could help them or not. I feel like this will also bring smiles and joy to many people today. I have already approached 15 people on campus today and I told them "Good Morning!" and then we spoke on how they were and then I told them to "Have a Great Day!" and to pass on the happiness and joy to others on campus. I feel like it may start a chain of good deeds or even let people bond and connect. I feel like if everyone realized how easy and how much fun helping others can be can start something so great and change the world for the better.
I am so excited about my experiment because most of the things that I thought would happen, have happened. For example, I thought that helping others would make me feel better as a person and make me feel as though I was making a difference in this world. This has proven to be true and I feel as though I have more self-confidence and every time I do something good, I get a sense that I just made a difference. I also thought that I may get tired or lose energy to try to help others, but this was proven wrong. I am actually feeling more energetic and I have learned that helping others doesn't take much effort or energy and that it actually is very simple and easy to do. I feel like many believe that they don't have enough time or enough energy to help others and that this is what prevents them from doing so. I hope that I can teach others that it is actually very simple and that if you just give it a try you will see that it is very beneficial to both others and yourself.
