Project 2: 5 Random Acts of Kindness

My first act of kindness is, I was put some food and water in ports on my house roof for birds as I read it is Sadqa e Jaria. In summers when every living being is thirsty due to hot weather birds also impact with hot weather that’s why I do this act of kindness for birds.

I feel it is relevant to working in a team, as if I have sympathy in my heart for other (humans as well as animals and birds). I will try to better understand the problems of others and try to help them.

My second act that I was do is that I’m giving water to my maid when she come for cleaning my house. After this act I come to know that this act create flexibility in me. This act show equality in humans, no one is worse/better than other so during my job when I work in a team I give equal value to the ideas of my team members as I give value to my idea’s.

Thirdly, I talked with my teacher, who was teaching me math’s in BSC. I was feeling happy when she said it is good to talk with you after a long time. I learnt through this act that we should try to keep in touch with your team mates even after you have done your project with them or even if you leave the company as it is good for networking and may be helpful in your next job.

I’m not expert in cooking but try to help my mother in cooking food and finally succeed in my efforts. Through this act I learnt that in jobs when we work in a team and other performs best, we should not think that I could not do this task because I never do it before. And try to start may be you would doing better than others.

One of my friend depressed due to some of her university issue. I give her some time, listen her problem and give her some suggestions that how she overcome from this problem. It is good experience for me that I help someone which is close to me. Through this act, I learnt that when we work in a team try to understand the other problems and issues that he/ she have and give him suggestion how to overcome from that situation.

Over all I have good experience after doing this activity and I learn many lessons from this activity.
