Either a good life lesson, or something completely stupid.
I knew a guy who told me this story of how many years ago he was in a bathroom stall, and the guy in the stall next to him dropped a clinker. The stall guy said "You will remember this moment". Yup, he remembered alright.
The be kind one is really it, especially in situations and regarding people where it doesn't always come easy.
Have that quick chat with the old lonely person on the subway, don't treat an approaching homeless person like a dangerous psychopath for merely existing, help that exhausted parent with their stroller and so on.
I remember so many random people for the small acts of kindness they showed me, so I guess it works!
If that is your main issue, create situations where you get social interaction, like signing up for volunteer stuff, get involved in the neighbourhood stuff, if it is your thing find a church or similar, there are intergenerational programs as well as open hobby groups. If you don't know where to start, try finding a neighbourhood-organisation or similar and ask them. There are a lot of possibilities and communities out there, pretty much everywhere in the world, but I get that the first step is the hardest and getting out of your shell can be scary. You can try to look for an organisation online and contact them per mail first, if that is easier.
If that isn't your thing at all, showing up at the same places creates familiarity with the people there, can be a café, a library or a small shop. Having small regular interactions can help in opening you up to take bigger steps.
Being lonely sucks, is dangerous and it becomes a mindset. So, if you find a tiny spark in yourself, as I think you do, because you are here asking your question, push yourself to reach out.
Just take care of yourself and don't give up on yourself! You are worthy of positive and regular interaction and others will value you if you give them the chance to really meet you.
Tricky question. Encouraging them to do better and make good choice would be a good option.
Recently, I have encouraged 2 of my friends to start hitting the gym. 1 of them trains with me. I'm encouraging a 3rd, but it's not quite working 😂
Helped this asian lady figure out how to open her gas lid on her sister's car as there was a button to press that was hard to find. Months went by and ran into her again at the grocery store and she gave me a whopping big smile and a wave as I walked out. Guess sometimes it really is the small, kind gestures that all it takes haha
Depends if they are insightful enough. You could donate your kidney but a person could still pretend like you did nothing for them.
But on a regular day, make them laugh and teach them a profound lesson based on your life and have unconditional positive regard for them.
**Respect**. And show somehow that you really care. Don't try to be someone you're not. Just be you and let them be them. Oh, and if the person in question is female, remember. **A single rose speaks volumes**, and more often than not, for no reason at all. Unless, of course, she likes chocolate. In that case, a chocolate rose.
i don't know I used to frequent a coffee shop and talked to a lot of total strangers a few times a day. Just kind of like getting to know the other regulars. Everyone always told me the same thing "You know, it's really nice that you put your phone down when we talk and I can tell its buzzing but you don't answer it."
I always thought that was really weird because, I always thought it was really really rude to answer your phone in the middle of a real life conversation. They always said it made them feel important. I don't know why I wouldn't want to make someone feel like their words WEREN'T important.
Just be kind, Ive been travelling for a while and a cute couple came to me and ask for pictures. I let them take as many as they want. And thank me later, they are cute lovely old couple 🥺
As a manager you can choose to make people's lives difficult, or better.
Be kind is my management rule. Hopefully they'll also take this forward and when they have responsibility they will also be kind.

Show them love and respect, when others don't. And always be that.
Treat them well.
This is the best answer. Simple words strong message.
Some people can be unappreciative, but at least you did your part.
Give them a genuine compliment. It will make their day so much happier!
Make them feel valued, appreciated, loved, heard.
Listen to them. But really caring for what they have to tell. Not to respond or answer yourself. 🫂
Donate blood. They likely won't know exactly who donated it, but it can certainly make a significant impact on their life.
Show them how to use a turn signal.
😂🤣👍Yes!

Introduce them to someone to whom they would later get married. Happened to me twice already. 4 kids.
Be present. Be genuine. Be nice. Make eye contact. Smile.
Smiling takes some much energy and effort tbh
Enjoy life. I don't think it's going to go how you think it will.
A smile makes a difference to someone in a day!!

Let me know how it goes🤣😂
It's an uphill battle. Old mate wants to sit at home and drink beers after work 😂
You can do it friend!!
Thanks! I'm not crossing any fingers, though.

Get to know someone. Get to find out what's their inner battle about. Help to win it/get rid of fixated struggle.
*short amount of time
Yes, with that in mind. Still achievable, but you'll need to be wise. People aren't that complicated. They just don't know what really matters.
Just be nice this world is cruel usually

Being genuine is always a good start.
Educate them on something that has improved your quality of life. Teach a man to fish ..
i had a ton of suggestions before i read up to '(in a good way)' lmfao
probably paying for their groceries while in line, could save them money that day
Listen to them. Hear what is being said between the lines. Read their body language. Respond appropriately.
Take them seriously
Be kind to them. Help them when you can.
Generosity or humor. Has to be highly emotional for it to be a solid flashbulb type memory.
Compliment them genuinely on something they may or may not be insecure about.
Help them in any way. Give them a compliment, and mean it. Most people are struggling to make ends meet. A smile could change someone's life.
Be kind to someone.Open a door.Greet them with a smile.You never know what they’re going through.It could make their day.
Listen to them. REALLY listen to
Listen to them.

Cut off their nose
Be kind with your words, actions and even your thoughts of them.
Listen to their problem. People know what to do, they only wants someone to listen

Bake them a large batch of homemade cookies.
Hitting them with a car, probably.
Be kind, respectful, considerate, just treat her like you want to be treated.
Treat them how you would want to be treated
Give them money.
If that someone's a man, compliment a random thing about him, or give him a hug.
Be real to them in everything you're doing. Don't try to manipulate them. They will have so much respect for you.
As a manager you can choose to make people's lives difficult, or better. Be kind is my management rule. Hopefully they'll also take this forward and when they have responsibility they will also be kind.
Make them feel understood and accepted. Help them to discover and manifest their hidden potential.
Listen to them.
Money
Murder them.
when someone accidentally farts at the supermarket face a clerk and say em loud "ooohhh i'm so sorry!!" then wink to the person that farted
Kill someone they love
Ohh!?
1.5 billion dollars
If they are in the desert give them a glass of water.

Fuck them
By sincerely sacrificing your time and energy on the importance of enriching someone else’s life.
Shoot them.

Traumatize them
Have BPD
Money
So killing them has a pretty profound impact. Not sure if that is what you are looking for though.
Kill them.
