Ever thought about why it feels so good to help or support others with no immediate or obvious benefits to you?
There is now research to say that being selflessly kind to others actually enhances our wellbeing. If we can practice this on a daily basis all the better. The act of 'kindless' can be as simple as letting someone go before you in the traffic to raising large sums of money for charity.
Once you begin to practice this regularly it becomes quite addictive. I am no saint, but I promise you will begin to feel a warm feeling inside - try it and see. That's how I feel about being a part of The Sorority, a new women's club which supports women in business. As one of their founding members I get to share information, ideas and hopefully inspire other women to do what they feel passionate about in their lives.
The Sorority philosophy is based on a vision of collaborative unity which really appeals to me. The charismatic founder Lisa Tse - a bundle of energy and enthusiasm says " If we each held a candle, we can shine as an individual. If we all came together with our candles, is there more or less light".
The Sorority celebrates style and femininty allowing women to be women in business and wants to provide female role models, and promote a more reciprocal working culture, full of passion and honesty. I'm in!
