How it randomly happen to find the best world to live or why i like to offer flowers

The question for today is:
Can we make a better world for everyone?

The answer is:
Yes. And i will give you not one, but two examples to prove it.

First hint is from a research called "Cooperative behavior cascades in human social networks", made by James Fowler and Nicholas Christakis. The discovered that random acts of kindness have a ripple effect, spreading not by one degree, as it was expected, but by three degrees, in a social network - from a person to person to person to person. Each person in a network can influence dozens or even hundreds of people, some of whom he or she does not know and has not meet. Conclusion is: Be good, become the change you want in the world and the our world will become your world you want to live in.

Second example treat the feeling known as elevation, that warm uplifting feeling we get when we witness someone else good deed. Jonathan Haidt at first, and Simone Schnall later, both researched and found that elevation leads to altruistic behavior. The more will witness your good deed, the better world will become. Witnessing another person's altruistic behavior elicits elevation, a discrete emotion that , in turn, leads to tangible increases in altruism.

You can think about at least few occasions when you witnessed or feel it, and maybe this will make you more prepared to be kind with others. We can bring magic in our life, and other's, we only need to act. That's it!

Have a nice day!
