"Find-Fulfill-Flourish is about a personal journey. It's about finding a direction and purpose, bringing that purpose to life-- or fulfilling-- and then simultaneously flourishing as a person, as well as helping others or your community to flourish. Navigating this process without a guide or directional system can be extremely challenging. You're probably familiar with the concept of the GPS (Global Positioning System), device found in many cell phones and automobiles-- it can tell us our precise geographical location at any given time. We have used the analogy of a LifePath GPS to create a set of tools to equip you for this expedition we call life. Many of us may feel a powerful sense of guidance from the lessons we learned growing up, our religious affiliation or spiritual path, a seminar we attended, or other influences in our lives. If this is the case for you, the information in our book and on this website will expand that capacity and enable you to take your life to a higher level of integration, meaning, and fulfillment. If these tools have been missing or limited in your life, you will find that you can begin using our guidance system immediately, and it will remain available throughout your life"-- Find Fulfill Flourish website.

50 transformative acts of kindness. For the self. For others. For nature. Aimed at mobilizing the world's youth to create a positive culture of kindness, the UNESCO Mahatma Gandhi Institute of Education for Peace and Sustainable Development (MGIEP) launched the #KindnessMatters global campaign to gather proof that kindness could drive scalable, positive and sustainable change. In the process, they were met with narratives so deeply moving, it confirmed what they knew all along-that kindness wasn't defined by lofty tales; it had always existed all around us, what we needed was to celebrate it in every moment of life because #KindnessMatters every day. Inspiring and thought-provoking, #KindnessMatters documents stories and poems of kindness from across the world, featuring voices and journeys of people who have dedicated their lives to making the world a kinder place. This book proves that small actions often have the biggest impact.
