We’ve been asked to participate in an initiative that the world needs right now. Called The Year Of Joy, created by Andrew Cannon and Debby Schlessinger-Hellman of The Art & Science of Joy, this is a year-long effort to focus on joy in our world, and to bring the positive, brighter, better things to all of us that we deserve, especially now.

The explanation taken from The Year Of Joy website further adds that it’s our wish to ‘empower people to build more joy into their lives,’ not just for this year, but for every year.

As members of The Year Of Joy promotional team, we’ve been assigned the superpower of Kindness. It’s been an honor to be considered in this way, and we take it very seriously. Kindness is one of the roots of a joy-filled life, as kindness begets kindness, and in that sense is a bit selfish. The kinder we are, the better our own lives become, until we establish a virtuous cycle of kindness, always a good thing.

Another goal for the team at The Year Of Joy is to reach 10 million contacts or more, and to provide that many people with an opportunity to share in every endeavor provided.

As for your Kindness superpower couple, during the week of January 23rd we’ll be interviewing a Year Of Joy participant every day on LinkedIn Live, and streaming to various Facebook sites. Expect an email from one or both of us with more details, and more cross-promotion will include live chats, webinars, more interviews, thought pieces, and an E-Newsletter along the way.

As the team states on the website, “in these unprecedented times, joy is a muscle we need to build as it makes us resilient, resistant to disturbances, and emotionally and physically healthy.”

Want more joy in your life? Of course you do. Here’s your chance to participate in the Year Of Joy. It’s all FREE, with no obligation, and no pressure, just more joy and energy to help you get to that better, more joyful place. Click the link below, and join us for The Year Of Joy!
