Day 4 of 31 - #Couragechallenge - A courageous random act of kindness...

So, some time ago while we were buying some bananas to make banana bread we were asked by the men who sold it to bring them some once it was done, this would take a lot of courage for us to do this particular act of kindness, and while this is not something that we would usually do, we decided that we would actually come back and give them some banana bread. I mean why not right! So, today we made the banana bread and made our way over to the fruit vendors we purchased the bananas from that wanted some banana bread and they were no longer there. Well isn't life funny. Well, this didn't turn out quite as we had hoped, but all well that ends well. We got some more banana bread to enjoy! 

Kindness Challenge Day 10). 10/3/2017 - The type of kindness people take for granted!

So, like we said we are working on a project of unbelievably epic proportions and like with most big projects there are bound to be some hurdles along the way. Whether in the form of miscommunication, or people not delivering what you need on time etc. Yesterday we encountered one of those hurdles and instead of reacting in a negative fashion we instead, took a deep breathe and sort to be understanding instead. Then we thought to ourselves, this is one act of kindness that most people take for granted, we chose to be kind by displaying patience and understanding to the person that is failing to deliver on their end and this completely made what could have been a volatile situation a very calm and easy one. Goes to show that kindness in no matter what form can only have positive results.

Kind words of the day to ourselves: 

"You can do anything you set your mind to and you will have everything you want." 

Kindness Challenge Day 5). 5/3/2017 to 7/3/2017 - We confess...

Unfortunately there were no acts of kindness committed on these days. We are kind of working on a project and really are just tucked away behind our computers doing work. So, there were and are no real opportunities for us to commit any acts of kindness. 

We even neglected to say any positive words to ourselves during this time, but after Thursday we should be back in full effect. Do not be discouraged though, this is a part of the journey of change, there will be stumbling along the way, but as long as we get back up and continue going, all will be well and the goal will inevitably be achieved. 

We hope that anyone out there that may have been doing the challenge with us are sill going strong, feel free to share in the comments of on our socials. 

Cheers,

(now we have to get back to work :) have a productive day.)

Kindness Challenge Day 4). 4/3/2017 - Motivating others

Today embarked on a slightly different journey in an effort to show kindness. We sat wondering what can we do to show kindness to people that are no where near us, maybe even in different parts of the world. Then it hit us, one day while on Bloglovin a place for blogger to come together,share and create, we noticed that there were many bloggers who were new to the craft that had zero (0) followers to their name, some made amazing content and some nothing at all and it reminded us of when we now started and was really struggling to stay motivated. One of the things that motivated us was on the occasions where people would have followed us or showed any kind of interest in our work. Thus we have decided to spend the majority of this day following all those people that have no followers as well as liking and commenting on their work, in an effort to hopefully motivate them to keep creating and not to give up. 

Today's kind words to ourselves are: 

"Good Job, Keep up the good work."

Kindness Challenge Day 2). 2/3/2017 - For you mum

Today we did some thing for someone who has been doing stuff for us since the beginning of our time. We went out of our way to give mum a drop home from work, which she appreciated so much she then immediately reciprocated with bags and bags of home grown vegetables among-st other things. We love you mum, see you next week.

Our kind words to ourselves today was: 

"Keep up the good work and do not worry, you are doing amazing."

Kindness Challenge Day 3). 3/3/2017 - Helping a teacher out!

So, not every time because someone looks like they have it all together that means they do. Today while lending a techy-eye to a friend in need, they seemed quite overwhelmed with the work they had to do so we decided to go ahead and offer to help her with some of the projects she had to do for her school that she teaches at.

Today's word of kindness to ourselves is: 

"You deserve every blessing that is coming way."

Kindness Challenge Day 1). 1/3/2017 - About Yesterday

We had quite a hectic day yesterday, however, we still found sometime to be kind to someone, this person wasn't necessarily in need, however it doesn't hurt to lend a hand of kindness to people who are in need of nothing, what we ended up doing is simply going over their place and helping them tidy up, even though they rejected our helping hand we saw it as a perfect opportunity to commit to our act of kindness. Then we ended up spending quite a lovely evening together bonding. 

As for the kind word we said to ourselves yesterday, they were, 

"You are amazing inside and out just the way you are."
