You help out without being asked to
The best kind of friend, coworker, and overall human being is the one who lends a helping hand simply because they want to be useful. When you offer to help for no reason other than to make someone else’s life easier, you might not think much of it (because that’s just the kind of person you are), but the people in your life won’t soon forget that small act of kindness and how you cared enough to reach out.
