Publisher's summary

Matthew Kelly's books and ideas have been inspiring men, women, and children of all ages for 30 years. Now he directs our attention toward a single idea that has the power to inject our lives with limitless meaning and purpose, while at the same time transforming the world. That single idea: generosity.

The Generosity Habit is built on a simple and profound principle: Give something away every day. It doesn't need to be money or material things. It could be complimenting a stranger, teaching someone how to do something, spreading a positive message, helping someone who is in a hurry, or simply smiling at someone generously. In fact, the philosophy behind the generosity habit rests on this singular truth: You don't need money or material possessions to live a life of staggering generosity.

The book you are holding in your hands is a profound and practical invitation to go beyond the problems plaguing society and become part of the solution. Along the way, you will discover the beauty and nobility of your own humanity.

A simple concept with profound possibilities.

Each chapter began with children, defining generosity with beautiful adjectives. The author shared simple ways to be generous with the world around us. At the end of that each chapter he would say, "Don't just be yourself, be your most generous self."

It gave me plenty of food for thought on many ways I can be more generous and how desperately the people around us need our generosity.

A great book in my estimation is one that makes me feel compelled to use its principles in my life.

I plan to take each chapter and utilize it. Not only that, I plan to share this book with others, and maybe even post about it on my socials.

I highly recommend this book to everyone. I can see that, perhaps sharing the principles here with our children could change the world!

Life changing

I loved the daily challenges. I liked the brevity of each chapter and the practical suggestions each day. Learning the generosity is a lifestyle that involves so much more than giving money. It’s a way to make every day life exciting and life giving.
