The most underrated act of kindness is simply letting people be. Let them mispronounce a word, talk too much about a show they love, or get excited about something you don't quite understand. Everyone has something that lights them up, let them shine, even if it's not your thing.
No, you cannot walk 10,000 steps daily, get 8 hours of sleep, cook every night, clean every day, take care of a family, make time for your own hobbies, and still be productive at work every day. This is not just propaganda, it is nonsense. Free yourself from it.

—Only female bees produce honey-male bees only mate with the queen, they don’t work, they don’t defend the hive. Their only role is to mate.
—Only female ants make up the colony-Males exist mainly to mate with queens during nuptial flight and they die shortly after. The entire colony (workers, soldiers) are female.
—Only female plants produce fruits-Male plants only produce pollen. Female plants produce the actual fruit
—Only female spiders sometimes survive after mating-Males mainly exist to find and mate with females. Sometimes they even get eaten after mating.
Every other male species are inferior but somehow human males think nature made them superior.

Tonight I had the privilege of hearing a 13 year old explain the terms "cooking" and "cooked" to my 45 year old manager and she said something so excellent I have to document it.
"cooked is bad. cooking is good. you're either in the pot or you're holding it."
Do you remember in The Lion King when scar told the hyenas if they helped him become king he will make their lives better and then their lives didn’t get better and he blamed them for it.
And upon realizing this, the hyenas ate him.
Do with that story what you will.
Not everyone wants to be a farmer or an entrepreneur. Others are comfortable working for the government or a private company and there’s nothing wrong with that. Let people do what they want. .
Unfortunately, perfect conditions don’t exist for Presidents.. Masisi got COVID… Khama had the 2008 financial crisis.. Mogae had to deal with HIV.. Masire had the worst drought ever seen here…
That’s the job, delivering while conditions are unfavourable…!!
