John Steinbeck was born in Salinas, California, where he spent the summers of his youth working on nearby ranches — the setting for much of his literary work, including "Of Mice and Men" and "East of Eden." His experiences gave him insights into the lives of the downtrodden, who often served as the protagonists in his novels. These struggles, not to mention living through the Great Depression, gave Steinbeck a greater appreciation for the good times he enjoyed. Steinbeck followed up the quote above with, "You only truly, deeply appreciate and are grateful for something when you compare and contrast it to something worse."




Would You Rather Win or Be Kind? | MWM
Would You Rather Win Or Be Kind? = If you have the choice to be right—to win—or be kind, always choose to be kind. You don't always have to be right, you don't have to win everything, instead we can be kind and ask others their opinions in order to connect.


What it Really Means to be Kind | MWM
https://youtu.be/cYG-Dbkw-M4
Look For A Need = Take advantage of today to be kind. Kindness embodies being good, while also taking useful action. It is being nice and helpful, gentle and useful, compassionate and generous, being positive and doing good. Kindness doesn’t only mean being nice, it means a willingness to act. Look for a need and meet it if you can. Who can you be kind to today?





What Kindness is and is Not
https://youtu.be/cCJjaOQSX-o
Encourage Others! = One of the 7 words of love from Joel Manby’s book, Love Works, is Kind—an extremely important leadership principle. As leaders, we must have tough conversations with people and hold them accountable, but we can still lead with kindness. We do this by making someone’s day better. Every time you come into contact with someone, you can make their day better or make their day worse. Every day, try to provide encouragement in each of your interactions, be positive, and improve the day. (You can learn more about the 7 timeless principles for effective leaders in Love Works)

Activate the gifts you are given.
