Composition on the topic Good deeds (reasoning). The kindest people in Russian history
Each person in his life every day performs a number of different actions. But do you know what actions are? This question seems quite simple, but if you think about it, few people know the definition of the concept of "act". It is everyday, within one day you may well mention it several times and hear even more times, but you will never think about what exactly was meant. That is why you should carefully study this article. From it you will learn not only about what actions are, but also about what types and features they have, including a number of components. Naturally, in real life this information will not be of much use to you. After all, everyone knows that actions are actions that a person performs. However, to expand your horizons, you still need to be imbued with this topic.
What is an act?
So, first of all, you need to understand what actions are. It would seem that the question is very simple and banal, many people will laugh when they hear it. But if they think for a minute, they will realize that they cannot give an exact answer. Yes, actions are the actions of a person, but how do actions differ from actions in this case? The answer, by the way, is quite simple. After all, an act is a conscious and only conscious action that a person performs of his own free will. Thus, an act is the embodiment of the realization of an act of free will. Actions are very closely related to the character of a person. After all, they are a reflection of human character traits in the real world. Very often, psychologists define them as statements by a person of himself as a specific person. As you can see, actions are very important thing worth knowing about more details. For example, what are the types of actions, what are their features, and so on.
Types of actions
Human actions cannot be attributed to the same level, because they differ greatly. There are several types of actions that you should pay attention to in order to understand this issue.
The very first type is a reflex. Many people may think that the reflex does not apply to the act, since it is not conscious, but they will be wrong. Indeed, the reflex is not a conscious action, it is an unconscious reaction to external stimulus However, the message for action comes from within. That is, if the sun is shining in your face, you reflexively raise your hand to close your eyes, and if an object flies at you, you reflexively step aside. This is the basic level of actions, which describes only the basic instincts. But reflexes are still actions, since they describe certain aspects of a person’s character at the most banal level. If we take an example with the same flying object, different people there can be different reflexes: someone will try to catch the object, someone will try to dodge it, someone will knock it down with their foot, and so on.
The next type of behavior is instinct. This is an emotional and expedient action, which differs in that a person performs it consciously, but at the same time is not aware of the results that he will receive as a result. A person eats because his instinct tells him to - he does not need to remind himself every time that he needs to have lunch so as not to die of hunger.
The most common type of act is a conscious action. IN this case a person not only consciously commits a certain act - he also knows what the consequences of this action will be, and also strives to obtain any specific result. It is these actions that reveal the character of the person who commits them to a greater extent.
As you can see, human actions can be divided into several different types, which in their own way will characterize a particular person. What else can be said about the actions? For example, you can look at what features they have, that is, what components can be distinguished in actions.
motive
The first feature of actions is a motive, that is, something that moves a person to perform this or that act. Every action taken has a motive. Even reflexes have it, although it is subconscious. Unmotivated actions are a deviation from the norm, and if a person commits them, then he needs the help of a psychologist or even a psychiatrist. However, the motive is far from the only component that every perfect act has.
Goals
The purpose of an act is what a person wants to receive by performing this or that action. At first glance, the concepts of motive and purpose may be similar, but in fact they are very different from each other. The motive is what is the initial reason for the action, while the goal is the final result towards which the person who performs the action moves. It is the goals that can determine whether actions are good or bad. For example, this can be done by looking at whether the interests of the person performing the act coincide with the interests of the people around him. If the interests coincide, then the act may be good, but if this does not happen, then the act will definitely be bad and selfish. Naturally, there is no categoricalness here, so interests often coincide partially. Accordingly, there are not only bad and good deeds, but every person knows this anyway.
Subject of transformation
It is the object of transformation that distinguishes an act from an action. An act, the essence of which is to transform one's own personality or the personality of another person, differs from an action that can be directed in absolutely any direction under any circumstances.
Facilities
An act is never done just like that - for its commission a person needs certain means. And if you do not see these means, it does not mean that they do not exist. Means can be the most diverse, verbal or practical. Examples of actions that use practical means, are numerous. It can be a trip to the store, and playing football, and cleaning the apartment. An act that uses verbal means is a little more complex. It does not include action as such and is based only on speech. However, this does not mean that any statement cannot be an act: a motivational speech or a call to save homeless animals is already an act that characterizes a person from one side or another.
Process
It makes no sense to talk a lot about the process, that is, the actual performance of the act itself, but it is impossible not to mention it. Moreover, the process of committing an act can be very different. For example, the actions of children usually have a fairly simple and uncomplicated process, but with age it gradually becomes more complicated, including preliminary thinking, planning, options for the development of events, and so on. However, as in all cases, it all comes down to taking the action and getting the result.
Result
Since we are talking about the result of an act, we need to dwell on this concept and analyze it in a little more detail. As in the case of an ordinary action, in most cases, after the completion of the action process, you will see a certain result. However, actions and actions differ from each other in that the act includes consciousness. Accordingly, as already mentioned in the paragraph describing the subject of transformation, the result is not only what happened as a result of the completion of the process of an act, but also personal changes in the person who performs it, in another person, as well as interpersonal changes. Simply put, taking an action only produces the actual result. While the commission of an act also carries with it moral consequences.
Grade
Well, the last point worth talking about is the assessment of the act. This is the highest level of human consciousness when performing an action. As mentioned earlier, an act can be reflexive, instinctive and, finally, conscious. The latter includes understanding that there will be some result at the end, as well as moving towards a specific goal. But there is more high level- assessment of the act, that is, an analysis of what happened, what factors were involved, what consequences manifested themselves, and also how it affected people and the environment as a whole. However, in order to fully appreciate an act, you need to know all its components, from the motive to the final result. Only then can you evaluate the act objectively and draw appropriate conclusions about it.
Well, now you know what an act is, how it differs from an ordinary action, what its types are, what its features and components are, how good deeds differ from bad ones, and so on. This information is not vital, you can easily exist without it, but still it can be useful, informative and more than interesting for you.

She said that she was going to church, but she slipped and fell. Dima brought the woman to the house, although he had to deviate from the given route by two stops. As a token of gratitude, she tried to give the guy money for travel. But Dima refused - not for that he helped her.

Kindness in Russian
kind-hearted grandmother
Kolmyk grandmother knitted 300 pairs of warm socks for flood victims. As you know, there are no small good deeds, and once again we find confirmation of this in the wonderful news from Magadan. Local resident pensioner Rufina Ivanovna Korobeynikova knitted and donated to flood victims in Khabarovsk three hundred pairs of warm socks.
For several years, an elderly woman knitted about two thousand woolen products, which were donated to the pupils of the orphanage and the home for the disabled. Since things knitted by a merciful grandmother were usually handed over to those in need at Christmas, over time, a very warm tradition of “woolen gifts” developed in local shelters, and Rufina Ivanovna was already knitting new socks for the upcoming holiday, when the flood began in Khabarovsk.
Rufina Ivanovna, having heard in the news about the tragedy associated with the flood, decided that now her “woolen gifts” are more important for the victims, because many people were left not only without housing, but also without clothes.
