  • Doing good things should be the ultimate motivation for you to do a good deed. Not to go to heaven or avoid hell.

  • What harm will happen to you if you do good for others? Doing the right thing will make your life easier and will bring the right people into your life.

  • Prioritize your happiness and joy and try your best to care for others without expecting things in return. Not every deed needs to be a transaction.
