We often think that kindness is the lot of the weak. Good is the lot of the foolish. Good = naivety. They do not seek from goodness. Kindness will destroy you. It is not profitable to be kind…. And such statements feed our fear of being vulnerable in a state of kindness. Do you often rejoice when you rebuff the offender in a harsh manner? The modern world is moving away from the propaganda of kindness and mercy, choosing a tough but fair position. And yet … If you go to the root of the state of good from the point of view of psychology, you can draw a parallel far from weakness. When a person faces a choice (and he always stands), we turn on either intellect (reason, logic) or intuition (feelings, emotions). Reason will explain to us in detail our choice, agree with it and accept it. Intuition, on the other hand, does not work logically, and sometimes it is much more difficult to explain an intuitive choice in words. Ask yourself this question: How often do you regret choosing to do something kind rather than fair? When did your kindness get in your way?
From wikipedia good - the general concept of moral consciousness, a category of ethics that characterizes positive moral values, the antonym of evil. But still, understanding goodness with reason is not so easy. In psychology, the closest thing to the concept of goodness is the concept of acceptance. It’s easier this way, it’s easier to overcome any situation - to accept it. This is the difficulty in being kind. How much strength a person should have to accept the cruel attitude of his father as a child. There is a choice - all your life to blame yourself for not being able to resist an adult, strong person on whom you were dependent. Or accept it? Accept as much as possible. The next step is self-acceptance. With all the mistakes we made. Accepting losses, accepting problems, accepting illnesses, accepting circumstances, accepting other people. All this is good. Accepting and not responding to other people is proving to be a very effective means of preventing mental health problems. By choosing acceptance, we are choosing mental health. So it turns out that being kind is profitable. By responding with a smile and gratitude to the offender, you increase your rating, your image, your self-esteem and the level of pleasure in the world. You yourself have the right to choose how to behave with the world. And if you want an easy way to find happiness, choose good.

Codependent Pattern Of Partner Selection. Can You Choose The Good?
Once I was shocked how Tim bought shoes. He tried on, it seems, several dozen pairs. Many were "ok" but not "good." A little lighter, a little heavier, a little tighter, a little looser, a little darker, a little lighter, the laces are a little narrower, a little wider … I was quietly furious.
WHY IN FAMILIES WHERE EVERYTHING IS GOOD, SOMETHING IS NOT GOOD WITH CHILDREN
A small note on this topic, since recently families that are friendly and happy have often begun to contact, and of course, on the one hand, it is joyful that there are such families, but for some reason something is happening with the children in these families, but not that, for example, children violently fight among themselves, or children have not typical long-term acquired symptoms - stuttering, enuresis, tantrums, heavy weight, etc.

Relationships: why do we choose who we choose? “We choose, we are chosen, How often it does not coincide … " Sometimes this not only does not coincide, but causes us pain and suffering, and then - a feeling of devastation, resentment, contempt, a bunch of all kinds of complexes and much more, which has an extremely destructive effect on us and, alas, on our relations with future partners.
How We Choose Not To Choose
"How we choose not to choose" Not all choices in our life can be considered free. Sometimes we choose based not on our feelings, but on rules, beliefs, or habits. Most often, a person's beliefs are formed based on personal experience, but this is not always the case.
Evil Does Not Tolerate Good, But Good Can Tolerate Evil
Russian priest Yakov Krotov says: "Evil does not tolerate good, but good can tolerate evil." Well said. On my own behalf, I will add that it can endure good, but good must have a limit of patience, otherwise good turns into the same evil if it endures infinitely and makes evil understand that EVERYTHING is POSSIBLE.
