I went to watch this man live tonight. Wow. He was brilliant. I walked away with a new feeling.
Please could we introduce this to the school curriculum...starting with the teachers. Imagine what a different world we would create in a generation.
This is really great and inspiring. And I like his heavy Scottish brogue.
You changed my vision about my post pharmaceutical period and conforted what I did from the bottom of my heart. God bless you and I am so thankful for everything you do for all of us.
Very inspiring and helpful. I am recuperating from heart surgery and have been soul searching how did my heart develop 3 occluded arteries. In this talk I realized how as I have aged I choose to close my heart instead of living from the heart. I have very few close friends a don't get to interact with them often. I like the idea of doing a kindness day, and practicing the Buddhist compassionate meditation. Then it occurs to me how many people like me would benefit from the support of a kindness club. Perhaps I'll start one.
bless you and I hope your life is just how you want it to be xxx
Down to earth person...I've seen him speaking...I have his book.!! Genuine human being.
I can not THANK YOU enough for your inspiration and emails. I give you praise for the timely words of wisdom. 😊
BEAUTIFUL | "we are wired for kindness!"
kindness is seen as weakness
So beautiful and so true ! Thank you so much
i love this train of thought... pity there aren't many more like him.
This is so lovely and inspiring, thankyou x
I really agree with the fact that we're wired to be kind and not selfish.
If we were wired to be selfish, the world wouldn't have evolved the way it did.
Great speech and great accent !
Play it forward!!! Great moral booster!!!
What a great talk. Thank you, Dr. Hamilton.
Kindness is fine as long as it doesn't turn into people pleasing.
people pleasing isn't kindness to either side, it's roots are based on your own unmet needs
Main trait of codependency
And, my ancestors long long ago were clan MacDuff red..so I big time love the Scots. And what Hamilton says about kindness..hey folks, that's wonderful, too!!
Whenever I show kindness I’m told that I’m either being manipulative, a goody two shoes or weak.Not everyone wants or appreciates kindness. As a consequence, I now withhold my compassion and give it only to my husband and dog.
the secret is to let go, kindness for kindness sake is the point, not the anticipated thanks
Wow..what a brilliant talk..
I agree wholeheartedly.
Great talk!
Lol, I find him kind, funny , smart and what a good sense of humor!! Now, that's fun-TASTIC! Good talk! ^~^
Lovely message.. I liked the way you mixed in humour with your message and the way you present it (like Billy connelly) 👍😁.. Makes you want to listen.
I love him!!!!!
You've made my day :D

So then everything our economy rewards goes against togetherness.
