5 Ways To Be Nice To Others and To Yourself

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Oxford Emory chapter.

For Others

1. Send cards to people you love

2. Donate things you aren’t using anymore

3. Make notes for yourself when your friends have a big test, an interview, or another event so you can send them a quick text.

4. Send people tweets, Instagram posts, etc. that remind you of them

5. Give compliments often

 

For You

1. Learn how to say no sometimes

2. Turn off social media and mute accounts of people that make you feel bad about yourself

3. Make time to do things you enjoy (that don’t involve your phone) like reading, cooking a nice meal, journaling, or watching your favorite movie.

4. Celebrate getting the little things on your to-do list done

5. Get exercise—you don’t have to run a marathon but maybe go to a yoga class or go on a nice walk.
