"When facing a crisis in which we feel anxious, angry, or powerless, many otherwise-brilliant people can see only two options: stay or go; attack or be silent. But when we have a wide array of do-able options to choose from, we feel more confident, powerful and optimistic, and ultimately... victorious."

"I promote positive change through public speaking, articles, seminars, classes, consults, TV appearances, radio commentary, and a future syndicated column."

1. Be open-minded and open-hearted.

2. Be kind to strangers... they may be angels in disguise.

3. Be collaborative, not adversarial, in negotiations.

4. Treat others as you would want to be treated.

5. Ask questions instead of assuming.

6. Practice empathy before judging or criticizing.

I'm currently working on a new nonfiction book , The Kindness Experiment, based on my 13 years of personal experience traveling openly as a writer on a mission in Canada and the United States. My "case studies" (here's one) prompt the question: Why do we reject kindness and generosity of spirit when to do so works against our own best interests?
