Becoming a Better me - Day 21

"Kindness" as defined by Pastor Richard Patterson III is "hearing and then doing what pleases others"(Chapter 1 pg. 2 of "This is the Kindness"). With that being said, to be kind is to simply be selfless. In most cases, one must be willing to set aside their own personal gains and be willing to do what is best for another, even if it doesn't necessarily benefit them. For example, if there is someone in your life that is not necessarily the best person to you, in fact they may be plain out mean, "Kindness" is saying that despite of how you are treated by that person, you will choose to be nice anyway. "Kindness isn't about lowering your standards, it's about being thoughtful enough to look outside yourself and create a new standard, perception and position of kindness."(Chapter 2, pg. 7 of "This is the Kindness")

Today is Day 21 of the #BecomingaBettermechallenge and my workout took place at home today. I did a quick stretch, 50 Jumping Jacks to get my adrenaline going, 60 Squats using two 10lbs dumbbells, 20 Push-Ups, 1 minute Russian Twists, 1 minute Scissors, 1 minute Plank, 50 Crunches, 50 Reverse Crunches and 50 Arm Curls, all while wearing my waist trainer of course. (Please consult with your Doctor before doing any workouts!) My prayer has been done for today and the scripture I will be reading is Philippians Chapter 2 NIV. Understand that "Kindness" is the very essence of the kind of love God gives to us daily as well as freely. If we want to be reflections of Gods love, let us work hard at being kind to one another as you work on #BecomingaBetteryou and I work on #BecomingaBetterme. #jointhemovement #yougotthis #keepgoing #dontgiveup If you wish to purchase your copy of "This is the Kindness" click on the link for more info! www.richiepatterson.com
