Go Do Good Thinking – Philosophy and Theory
1. Core Principle
Go Do Good Thinking is a way of thinking focused on making healthy choices, focusing on both your own well-being and the well-being of others. It is a systematic way of thinking based on three pillars:
Self-protection and self-care – taking good care of yourself is the foundation for being good to others.
Respect and empathy for others – taking into account the feelings, wishes, and experiences of others.
Constructive and creative action – making choices that contribute to a positive and sustainable outcome.
2. The Theory
The theory behind Go Do Good Thinking can be summarized in the following steps:
Observe
Actively listen to yourself and others.
Not only hear what someone says, but also understand what they mean.
Question
Ask open-ended questions about wishes, desires, and needs.
Avoid assumptions and unsolicited advice.
Reflect
Think critically about your own role and influence.
Carefully weigh the interests of yourself and others.
Create
Develop solutions that fall outside the standard framework.
Dare to see alternatives and explore new ways of thinking.
Act
Choose actions that are good for both yourself and others.
Focus on sustainable, healthy, and constructive choices.
3. The Philosophy
The philosophy of Go Do Good Thinking is based on three fundamental values:
Awareness – Doing good starts with awareness: knowing what you think, feel, and do, and understanding its impact on others.
Connection – Good thinking and doing create bridges between people. It promotes trust and cooperation.
Health – Healthy choices – physically, mentally, and emotionally – strengthen both the individual and the community.
4. Practical Application
In communication: listen first, then respond.
In collaboration: ask about everyone's contribution and expectations.
In decision-making: find a balance between self-interest and the collective interest.
In personal growth: learn to think differently, allow new perspectives, and break patterns.
5. Guidelines for Doing Good
Ask instead of assuming.
Listen without judgment.
Think creatively and solution-oriented.
Respect boundaries – both your own and those of others.
Choose the option that promotes health, clarity, and mutual respect.
In short: Go Do Good Thinking is a practical philosophy that teaches people to act consciously, empathetically, and creatively. It's not a rigid system, but a flexible way of thinking that continually asks: What is the healthiest, most respectful, and constructive choice here – for me and for others?
