Have you ever heard of this saying? A good deed goes a long way. Well, now there is scientific evidence that good deeds are beneficial not only for the receiver but, it is better for the giver. So, a good deed can indeed go a long long way.
A good deed can:
Decrease stress where long term ‘good deed-er’ has less potential to develop hypertension. It also increases life expectancy, improves physical and mental health. Dale Carnegie said that when we perform a good deed, our minds tend to shift from thinking about our own sorrows to focusing on others, and this considerably lessens the mental burden. Doing a good deed make us feel happy and elated. Finally, doing a good deed makes us feel happier at work!
Now this makes me feel like I need to get involved in doing good deeds. Where do I go?
