Answer:

DEED

Hint:

Not available

Explanation:

This clue plays on the idea of "good deeds" bringing positive outcomes. The word "deed" itself means an action, and in many cultures, doing good deeds is believed to create good karma—a concept from Hinduism, Buddhism, and other traditions where kind actions lead to future benefits. The phrasing hints at the answer by suggesting that a "good one" (a good deed) has this effect.
