Easy Ways To Be A Good Human Being

Good Human Being

"I don't know about myself but I want to be a good human being. I learned honesty, integrity, kindness, love, whatever needed to be a good human being from Colonel Farid, Bangladesh Army whom I consider unparallel, honest to the highest order and an extra ordinary human being and more than a General to me"

General

1. I may think that I am an average guy trying to become better in both my work and home life. I'll never be perfect, but it doesn't mean I won't try. Philosophers have been debating what is good and what is not for centuries, and many people find that it's more complicated than just being kind. While every person's journey is different, being good has a lot to do with discovering yourself and your role in the world. In order to truly be good, you will have to consider what 'goodness' means to you. Perhaps this means doing good for others, or simply being an honest and kind person. If you want to continue to grow as a person, here are few easy ways to make the most of yourself:

Don't Compare

2. Don't compare yourself with others. If you do so, you are insulting yourself. Just be yourself. Don't try to be like somebody else. Do good things as simply as you can. Being yourself helps you be a genuine person who can reflect positivity into the world. Staying true to yourself helps you find focus and understand your core values and what you find important. Everyone is unique with his own quality and capability. Try to understand that some have it better than you but many have it much worse. When we make ourselves miserable by comparing ourselves with others, we are wasting time and energy that we could use in building our own inner resources. 

Love Yourself

3. Learn to love yourself. If you love yourself, then you will make a positive impact when you help others. Practice unconditional self acceptance. The only way you can truly love others is to first love yourself. What you do and what you believe must make you feel good as well as others. If you try to do things for others without taking care of yourself, you can end up resentful, angry, and negative. 

Develop Yourself

4. You have to decide what you believe being a good person entails. Few people think that being a good person is as simple as not doing harm to other but it is not always about what you don't do but what you do for others. Being a good person also includes helping yourself as much as others. 

Educate Yourself

5. Ask a person intimately connected with any event for his or her thoughts, ideas or opinions. Read books, newspaper and go through internet to know anything. Remember, we're all interconnected, and being aware of different cultures, different people, and what their lives are like can make you a more well rounded individual. 

Compliment Yourself

6. Compliment yourself every morning. Being happy makes you a more positive person, which helps you put those positive vibes out into the world. Every morning before you go on with your daily routine, take a couple of minutes to give yourself a compliment. Whether you compliment your outfit, haircut, or how you recently completed a task using your unique skill sets, giving yourself a little emotional boost will make you happy. Be yourself. These include being able to align yourself with your values and beliefs, establish your identity, build courage, create boundaries, and find focus and direction.

Leave Anger

7. To help you let go of anger, you may write your feelings down, pray or meditate, or begin to manage your thoughts. While anger is a perfectly normal emotion, you can't let it fester. When this happens, you may make unwise decisions, and more important, it may affect your health. 

Forgive Others

8. Forgive and let go of resentment. If for no other reason than for yourself, forgive to untether yourself from the negative experiences of the past. Take time to meditate, and give thanks for the wisdom and knowledge gained from your suffering. 

Listen to Others

9. Being a good listener can change your life in a positive manner. Speech is great but silence is greater. Listening to people and giving everyone a voice is one of the greatest things you can do. Meet some of the most amazing people and develop connections that will last lifetime. 

Be Kind

10. Try to do something nice for someone every day, even if it's something small. An act of kindness and generosity can have a great influence. Smile, hold the door open for someone, pay it forward at the drive through. Just try to do something to make someone's day.

Be Respectful

11. Don't toss your trash or cigarette butts on the floor of public restrooms or sidewalks just because someone else will clean it up. Be respectful of others' time, thoughts, ideas, lifestyles, feelings, work, and everything else. You don't have to agree with any of it, but people have a right to their opinions and yours is not necessarily correct. Take this mentality and apply it to everyday life to be a better human being.

Be Helpful

12. Be helpful to everyone. The most respected person is the one who inspires others to achieve their best to unlock their highest potential. Being helpful is one of the easiest and most effective ways to practice becoming a better person. Whether giving up your seat to an elderly person on a transport, assisting a coworker on an assignment, or carrying in the groceries when your spouse comes back from the store. I find that the more I help others, the better I feel about myself and everyone around me.

Be Honest and Positive

13. Try to bring a positive attitude to every situation. Negativity only hurts yourself and others. If you are negative, it has an impact on the way you treat others. Your mentality can influence the achievements of your days. If something doesn't turn your way, try to change what you can, smile, stay positive, and move on. How would you feel if a loved one or business partner lied to you? Chances are you would see that as a violation of your trust. If you want to be a better person in either your personal or professional life, you should always tell the truth and state as clearly as possible what you are trying to convey. Learn to articulate your thoughts, feelings, and ideas in an open and honest manner.

Be Polite

14. How much effort does it take to say, thank you or to hold the car door open for someone? Not much at all. However, these acts of kindness can make someone's day. The way someone else behaves is not going to determine my behavior. I must decide that it doesn't matter if someone is ultra rude, condescending, or worse. I must be polite and humble. Be confirm, it pays a lot.

Don't Make Excuses

15. Never blame anyone. Own your mistakes and learn from them instead of pointing fingers and making excuses about why you aren't happy or successful in your personal or professional life. When you personally start living up to your mistakes and downfalls, your life will turn itself around. You will definitely became happier and healthier, and your relationship with your wife, colleagues, relatives and friend will improve. 

Conclusion

16. Every time you interact with the world you have an opportunity to do something good and positive. It does not have to be something big, but can be something like picking up some trash that someone threw down in a local park or in front of your neighbor's home. Be conscientious and find a way to give back to the world. Becoming a better person doesn't happen overnight, but it is possible. Believe in yourself and know that it is possible. Being a good person means more than just doing things for others. You have to accept and love yourself before you can put positive energy into the universe.
