Lessons In Living From A Cat Named Ali

"When you give of yourself, and genuinely care for others, the universe will provide that love, care and happiness for you too."

- Anne-Marie Bauer -

Lessons In Living From A Cat Named Ali

At a recent retreat held in New Jersey, attendees were asked to think of a gift they had received that had a special impact on their lives. "One personal reflection of mine, took me down memory lane to about seven years ago, to a time when I was experiencing some hardships that wanted to come in a sequence of one after the other... However, a turning point came my way, by way of being given a gift and along with it, a feeling that was not only spirit lifting, but life changing as well. I was gifted Ali..." Read on as Anne-Marie Bauer shares the story of how a little orange-and-white cat taught her about the relationship between simple acts of giving -- and a life of true abundance. { read more }

How Is Your Leadership Changing?

As we look ahead into the next century, leaders will be those who empower others.

- Bill Gates -

How Is Your Leadership Changing?

Well-known author and organizational consultant Margaret Wheatley has written about a troubling trend: the movement of today's leadership toward a command-and-conquer model that stifles worker motivation and creativity. In this article she challenges readers to check in on their leadership styles and to consider moving toward a style that is more trusting and distributive of responsibility.

Being Kind: The Music Video That Circled The World!

Can you see your love for me shining through? Cuz what you see in me, I can see in you. And soon enough, you and me we'll be out of time. And kindness will be all we can leave behind.

- Nimo Patel -

Being Kind: The Music Video That Circled The World!

The 21-Day Kindness Challenge launched on September 11th. 98 countries. 6000 people. And a collective tidal wave of good that inspired many -- including young rapper-activist "Nimo" Patel at the Gandhi Ashram in India. Nimo wasted no time channeling that inspiration into an infectious music video. "Being Kind" was created on super short notice by an intercontinental crew of volunteers working out of their living rooms. It features footage from all over the world and heart-melting appearances by the children Nimo works with in the slums. Watch, listen, and prepare to smile big at this lyrical reminder that kindness really is "all we can leave behind." { read more }

Send a note of gratitude to Nimo and friends for creating this beautiful song. { more }

Can You Run Out of Empathy?

I call him religious who understands the suffering of others.

- Mahatma Gandhi -

Can You Run Out of Empathy?

"It is impossible to empathize with seven billion strangers," argues psychologist Paul Bloom in his essay, "The Case Against Empathy." And though, the immense power of empathy has been demonstrated time and time again, Bloom's statement poses an intriguing question -- why do we not respond equally to all stories? For example, why are we more likely to respond to the tragedy at Sandy Hook, than to the fact that 'twenty million American children go to bed hungry each night'? Bloom refers to the 'single identifiable victim' theory -- suggesting we are more likely to respond to stories which have been personalized. "Our hearts will always go out to the baby in the well," offers Bloom. But does this mean that empathy is limited? Author C. Daryl Cameron could not disagree more... { read more }

Be The Change

As you go about your day, make a special effort to empathize with the people who cross your path.
