How To Be Kind...Even If It's Imperfect | Simon Sinek and Trevor Noah

Kindness includes discomfort, and I think the most difficult kind of kindness is the uncomfortable kind of kindness. So for example, somebody you know suffers some sort of tragedy. They lose someone close to them in an untimely fashion. They lose their job, whatever it is. And so many times we do nothing because we don't want to say the wrong thing, do the wrong thing. And sometimes we do say and do the wrong thing, and it does trigger someone. Yeah. I think there is something about saying, "I don't know what to do, but I think it's right to do something," and to lean into trying to be kind, not knowing how it's going to be received, but it's the right thing to do, I think is the most difficult act of kindness, because when someone is suffering, so often what we do is we leave them alone, which is not an act of kindness.
