Top Take-Aways from Bart
Â
KINDNESS — “Most People Don’t… But YOU Do.”
Opening Message
-
Kindness isn’t soft, it’s powerful.
-
Every interaction is a chance to make someone feel seen, valued, and included.
-
Example: The “Q” Gratitude Stone story, seeing someone can change their day (and yours).
The KIND Framework
-
K — Kind Over Right: Choose compassion over ego. (Cheeseburger without cheese story.)
-
I — Include Others: Small gestures create belonging. (Coffee shop birthday story.)
-
N — Notice, Anticipate, Overdeliver: Thoughtful personalization builds loyalty. (Florence balloons, thank-you scratch-offs, anniversary basket.)
-
D — Doing Great: A simple phrase can lift people up. (Ben’s story.)
Key Reminders
-
Kindness strengthens trust and connection.
-
Overdelivery isn’t about cost, it’s about care.
-
Inclusion is often remembered long after the service is over.
-
“You’re doing great” can change someone’s day.
TRIGGER. GLIMMER. AWE. — Feel Better. Do Better. Be Better.
Trigger
-
Definition: Something that happens to us that causes an emotional or physical reaction.
-
Common examples: rude guests, stressful travel, negative reviews, personal texts, helpless client moments.
-
Our story about the trigger often causes more pain than the event itself.
Glimmer
-
The small spark that shifts your perspective.
-
Humor, gratitude, boundary-setting, kindness, or simple self-care can rewrite your inner narrative.
-
“You can’t control everything but you can control the story that follows.”
Awe
-
Awe is a moment of wonder that grounds and lifts us.
-
Examples shared: holding a grandchild, a daughter’s baptism, goddaughter’s success, fall foliage.
-
“You are not broken. You are building.”
Tools to Reset Your State
Physical: F.M.R.
-
F — Fuel: Energize (water before coffee, whole foods).
-
M — Move: Motion creates emotion (walk, stretch, breathe).
-
R — Rest: Protect your energy and focus (phone down, sleep well).
Emotional: 3 C’s
-
Clear: Write down good & bad thoughts.
-
Connect: Surround yourself with people who fuel your soul.
-
Create: Act with intention and define what matters most.
-
Kindness and awe are choices.
-
Triggers are not the end of your story.
-
Inclusion, noticing, overdelivering, and awe all create lasting impact.
-
“Most People Don’t… but YOU do.”
