Good morning friends.

” A Great thinker was asked,

‘What is the meaning of

 Life’ He replied, ” Life itself has no meaning,

It’s an opportunity to create a meaning.”

Have a great day. Stay blessed always. Keep Smiling and Laughing.

Good morning friends.

The post Thought for the Day…03/18/26 appeared first on Good News!.

I have lived in West 80th Street between Amsterdam and Columbus for 40 years and it has changed for the better.  Thank you, NYC and our Politicians, and COMMUNITY.

The post MIRACLE ON 80TH STREET, OUR GORGEOUS GARDEN- West 80th, NY…Stella & Mom & Dads Support Create the Miracle appeared first on Good News!.

To paraphrase, most of us spend our lives hanging on for dear life to the old until something calls us to let go and take a leap of faith into the unknown. It can be terrifying, yet we know we must release our hold on the past (the old trapeze bar) and soar across the vast void of unknowing to reach the new one.

We may feel scared, excited, vulnerable, unsure of ourselves, confused, or disoriented, but this is where the real change happens… When feeling unsure of ourselves, we can reject our rigid thinking and make new choices that may bring unexpected benefits. As we give ourselves permission to hang out in this transition between trapeze bars, we learn to fly!

A good affirmation to say each day is “My life is filled with new opportunities, and it is safe for me to learn new things.”

As we move into the last few weeks of 2024 I invite you to spend some time looking back on what 2024 was about for you. Just BE present with what is. We are moving into 2025-a year of major change, right now we are in the growing pains of this shift of consciousness.

GOOD Worldwide, Upworthy and Net Impact have forged a Social Impact Alliance to launch GOOD Institute today, scale impact initiatives, engage the next generation of leaders, and serve as a force for good for leading businesses. GOOD Institute is a new nonprofit thought leader and social action think tank, empowering socially responsible organizations and individuals.

“The ever-increasing power dynamic of consumers, employees and investors – each seeking new responses to prove credible progress on social impact – demand regenerative solutions and structures,” said Net Impact CEO Peter Lupoff, who also serves as CEO for GOOD Institute. “GOOD Institute is a response to this current demand for action, because yesterday’s approaches don’t meet today’s social impact needs,” added GOOD Worldwide CEO Max Schorr.

This social impact alliance leverages more than 45 years of combined experience and relationships of GOOD Worldwide, Upworthy and Net Impact to empower and influence millions of engaged citizens, students, corporations, employees, and activists throughout the world to create meaningful and lasting change. Each organization brings a track record of excellence, issue and functional expertise, and unique perspectives to this new collaboration.

GOOD Worldwide is a B Corp mission-driven social impact company reaching millions of people every day through its award-winning media channels, Upworthy and GOOD, and offering business solutions, that enable top corporate and philanthropic brands to drive awareness, social action and change. Upworthy, its social media megaphone spreads meaningful content, reaching over 100MM a month to inspire and share the “best of humanity.”

Net Impact is a leading nonprofit with an active community of 160,000 members across 350+ college campuses and local communities in over 40 countries who aspire to be effective drivers of economic, social, and environmental change through Net Impact activations and programs, individual actions, and their chosen careers. Net Impact will continue to work with next-gen leaders in chapters around the world to empower social change, within GOOD Institute.

2021 GOOD Institute Impact Survey – happy to forward this as well as an attachment

As part of its launch, GOOD Institute is releasing the results of its first GOOD Institute Impact Survey. Querying more than 500 current and future Business Leaders (BL) as well as the General Public (GP), the 2021 Impact Survey explores what these groups believe to be our most pressing social issues and the most effective ways companies and individuals can harness their influence to make a difference. The complete findings of the report demonstrate expansive consensus. A summary and the full results of the GOOD Institute 2021 Impact Survey are available at GOODInstitute.org/ImpactSurvey.

“While issues today seem to be increasingly divisive, I am heartened to see an overwhelming majority of people holding shared beliefs and ideas about what needs to be done to address our societal challenges,” said Schorr. “GOOD Institute will enable significant action to benefit our planet now and for future generations.”

“By identifying specific steps we, engaged citizens, are willing to take to make a difference, as well as the qualities we need to see in business leaders, the report provides an ideal roadmap for broad stakeholders to work together to address the world’s biggest challenges,” noted Lupoff.

Key Findings

● Climate Change Considered Most Critical Issue

● 80% of General Public Sees Voting As Vital

● Nearly One-Quarter of Surveyed Business Leaders Would Run For Office

● Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Initiatives and Treating Employees Fairly Mark Top Ways Business Can Create Impact

About GOOD Institute

GOOD Institute, a newly formed 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization established through the alliance of Net Impact, GOOD Worldwide and Upworthy, will address important issues, drive social action and reimagine the possibilities for our shared future by charting a new contract between business and society to meet today’s evolving challenges with regenerative solutions.

Leaps.org – an editorially independent media platform; features news and discussion about science, technology, ethics and the future of humanity. Leaps.org hosts the fast- growing podcast, “Making Sense of Science” and a special multi-part series, “COVID Vaccines and the Return to Life.” Leaps.org is advanced by a consortium of like-minded partners including the Aspen Institute Science & Society Program and supported by Bayer AG, the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, the Howard Hughes Medical Institute, and the Rita Allen Foundation.

Dear Paul,

“Sticks and stones can hurt your bones but names will never harm you.” NO!

Like many of you, I grew up hearing this, but know that it is not true. We all have experienced the destructive power of negative words, but rarely understand how they can impact our lives and keep us stuck.

In fact, as I was recalling the other day, when I was about 16, a boy I had a big crush on told me: “it’s too bad you aren’t pretty, but you are interesting looking”. That stuck with me for years and sometimes rears its ugly head even now. My brilliant writer friend, whose father always rewrote her school papers, still can revert to thinking she is not good enough even though she has received numerous accolades for her writing skills, and a client of mine, who was bullied as a child, still feels that he is unattractive and “fat”.

According to an article in Psychology Today, “Martin Teicher M.D., Ph.D. and others have shown that there are physical and emotional consequences of “just” verbal abuse. In one study, the researchers found that the effects of parental verbal aggression were comparable to “those associated witnessing domestic violence or nonfamilial sexual abuse.” In fact, verbal aggression produced larger effects than familial physical abuse. There’s evidence too that exposure to verbal abuse in childhood actually alters the structure of the brain.” 

The good news is there are ways we are able to rewire our brains and break the cycle of negative self talk. Over time you can replace the negative programming with one that is more useful. It is important to be able to acknowledge yourself as valuable and then treat yourself accordingly. it does not serve you to have a small limited view of yourself. It is impossible to create the life you want if you are always feeling “less than”.

Here are some tips on how to begin (know that you may require the guidance of a coach or therapist depending on how much verbal abuse you have experienced):

1. Notice the negative self talk as it comes up.
2. Become aware of how it makes you feel. Where do you feel it in your body?
3. Is this helping you move into the future that you desire?
4. If the answer is no, tap your third eye (area between the brows) and say “Cancel Clear”– imagine the thought dissolving.
5. Now replace the thought with one thing that is more positive using an I AM statement (for example moving from “I cannot write” to “I AM a good writer”)
6. Visualize your future with this new belief as a reality.

Until next time,
Barbara
