The Kindness Game
There are physical and mental health benefits to kindness. Take these ideas to turn kindness into a game for your family! As the Mayo Clinic Health System states, “Kindness means harboring a spirit of helpfulness, as well as being generous and considerate, and doing so without expecting anything in return. Kindness is a quality of being. The act of being kind often is simple, free, positive and healthy.”
The POWER of ROUTINE
A solid routine fosters a well-worn groove for one's mental energies and helps stave off the tyranny of moods. Having a routine can be helpful in times of unpredictability, uncertainty, and stress. Setting a daily routine creates structure, helps us reach our goals and reduces procrastination. Entrepreneur.com says, “The real power in routines is the way they can help us build momentum, break bad habits, prioritize our lives and make us more efficient.”

Think about the last time you set an intention. What was it about? Did you see it through to completion? As a business owner, my intentions are often around what I’d like to accomplish in my business. I want to be intentional about my intention- the WHY behind what I intend to accomplish.
