The Karen Kenney Show

Making a Positive Contribution (Even When It Feels Tiny)


Listen Later

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I talk about what it really means to make a positive contribution in your life - especially when you’re feeling stuck, scared, or like you’re falling behind.

I share a little bit about working on my memoir and why author Ryan Holiday says that chasing word or page counts can backfire, and how shifting to small, doable daily actions can change everything.

We revisit Kaizen (continuous improvement through tiny steps), and I show you how to apply the concept in your writing, money, fitness, relationships, and spiritual practice. It can help even when you only have 5 or 10 minutes!

I also pull in some wisdom from the Bhagavad Gita, A Course in Miracles, and some of my favorite teachers to remind you that no sincere effort is ever wasted!

If you’re tired of your own (or others) “all-or-nothing” thinking and want a more compassionate, sustainable way to grow…

Then this episode will help you start making positive contributions today, from exactly where you are and with exactly what you’ve got to give. ❤️
