According to the World Kindness Movement, "The purpose of World Kindness Day is to look beyond ourselves, beyond the boundaries of our country, beyond our culture, our race, our religion; and realise we are citizens of the world. As world citizens we have a commonality, and must realise that if progress is to be made in human relations and endeavours, if we are to achieve the goal of peaceful coexistence, we must focus on what we have in common. "
Countries that celebrate the World Kindness Day this year include Canada, Japan, Australia, India, Scotland, Nigeria ,United Arab Emirates and Singapore. The Singapore Kindness Movement celebrating the World Kindness Day for the first time is distributing 45,000 yellow daisies meant to motivate the public to show appreciation for acts of kindness.
People like to feel recognised and appreciated. Saying 'thank you' has become a competitive advantage in business these days in the fast-paced world we live in. Those who practise personal gratitude in life- to parents, friends and others will find it easier to do so in the business world- from the sales person to the executives who close deals worth millions of dollars.
A thank you note expressing gratitude creates a strong incentive for the recpient to stay connected.
It has also become good business for business owners and managers to thank their employees for a job well done.
