The next morning he remembered yet another person who had helped him when he needed it most. He did this every morning for a month, not knowing why he was writing all these stories. Then he realized it was a book. A book of true stories of how people helped Joe when he was broke, unknown, unpublished, and with no evidence that he would ever be a success. They helped him anyway. He named the book "Unexpected Kindness.” It’s his way to give thanks to those who helped him, long before he became a bestselling author, musician, speaker, or ended up in the hit movie The Secret; and his way to ignite a fire within you to help others. Joe believes the solution to the world's problems - yours and his - is in one word: kindness. Practice "Unexpected Kindness" and you'll influence people in ways you can't imagine or predict - just as those who helped Joe long ago.

Download or read book On Kindness written by Adam Phillips and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2010-06-22 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this brilliant, epigrammatic book, the eminent psychoanalyst Adam Phillips and the social historian Barbara Taylor examine the terrors of kindness and return to the reader the intense satisfactions of generosity and compassion. Kindness is the foundation of the world's great religions and most-enduring philosophies. Why, then, does being kind feel so dangerous? If we crave kindness with such intensity, why is it often the last pleasure we permit ourselves? And why—despite our longing—are we often suspicious when we are on the receiving end of it? Drawing on intellectual history, literature, psychoanalysis, and contemporary social theory, this brief and essential book will return to its readers what Marcus Aurelius declared was mankind's "greatest delight": the intense satisfactions of generosity and compassion.
