Why are we hoarding kindness? Especially when kindness brings you luck. Yes, there’s a science to kindness - and very small acts of it can bring you luck. And today, I will prove this to you.

You see, luck doesn’t really come from manifestation, it comes from appreciation and gratitude … to others.

While this may seem like a rudimentary lesson, think about how much you don’t think about giving away your kindness.

You know that sweet-as-pie cashier at the grocery store who always greets you with a smile? Did you give them a commendation? You know that customer service worker who went out of their way to give you a better experience? Did you give them a commendation? But you don’t have time, right?

Well, what about that video you watched online that made you laugh or made you think or made you feel something at a time when it’s been hard to feel … Did you give that person a commendation - with a like? A like that takes less than a nanosecond to give.

PART 2 WITH DR. GABOR MATÉ

WHY ARE YOU HOARDING YOUR KINDNESS? WHY ARE WE HOARDING KINDNESS?

So here’s the plan for this episode: I will share a real-life, real-time, successful experiment I did on kindness - a decade-long experiment. But I won’t just tell you about this, you will get to re-live a piece of it (calm down - not all 10 years) and experience it with me.

Most importantly, I will tell you right now, the best way to head into the new year: It’s not about weight loss. It’s not about saving more money. It’s not about any resolutions.

IN EPISODE 30 YOU WILL LEARN:

• Why you have the power to create your own luck.• How a $3-of-kindness turned into too many dollars to count. • The science behind why giving (even a smile) gets you even more in return.• You are not alone.

Oh, and next week … you’ll meet someone who is disrupting the world of mental health more than most anyone on the planet.

So, please make sure to follow the podcast on Apple or Spotify - or wherever you listen to this. Because you won’t want to miss Dr. Jessica Taylor - especially if you’ve been diagnosed with any mental health “disorder.”
