3.0 out of 5 stars Nice book 21 May 2013
By i_mcg
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I have read a lot of 'feel good' books in recent years, so there were no surprises in this book. I downloaded it to my Kindle and it was not expensive. Michael comes over as a nice guy. If there were more like him in the world we really would be making and seeing a difference. Still interested enough about his new book. Thank you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Am I Being Kind? The Question for All of Us 1 April 2011
By G. E. Kugler - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I picked this book up because of its title. Personally, I have always wanted to be a kinder person than I am. I had never heard of the Author really so the title did it. The author seems to me to start a little slow. I have to admit that I read a lot and I read self improvement books a lot and always have. So the first half of the book was to me some things that I'd read for a lifetime. Good things, well worth being reminded but wasn't really into the book at that point.

Then when I crossed over to the Authors experiences, his quitting his job to start an Institute on kindness and his very real explanations of kindness in action, I got hooked. It is a great and important book. It outlines exactly how we might put love to action by being kind in all our actions. It is not an unreasonable approach as are many. It is an actionable book. It is important because our world needs this now more than ever.

Ever since I put this book down I cannot get 'am I being kind' out of my head. As I walk through a store, down the street, driving around you name it ... that phrase echoes in my head. And it is slowly changing my behavior. am I being kind ... an excellent book and an even better question we must all carry with us.

5.0 out of 5 stars A brilliant read to bring us back to the reality of the basics! 29 Mar 2011
By Linda Mitchell - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
Am I being kind is a wonderful warm and uplifting book that is written with all of the heart and soul of the author. He exposes his deepest soul, his tumultuous childhood, his hurt, his pain and his emergence from a time that had no hope to a time that is filled with unconditional love and kindness! Michael Chase has allowed his unkind based life to be a catalyst to showing the world how changing your focus will change your life.
Come along with Michael on his journey as he brings kindness to a world that is aching for it! Understand how very simple this gesture is and most importantly how it will bring magic to your world! I applaud the author in his love for a life that is filled with such immense kindness! Thank you for a beautiful, loving and gently guiding book and for allowing us to peek into your soul so eloquently!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Antidote for What's Wrong in the World 28 Mar 2011
By Caroline Grimm - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
It seems like such a simple concept...being kind. Something we're taught as children. Somewhere along the way we lose sight of that. We replace kindness with angry words, rude gestures, incivility, cruelty, violence and then are surprised to be repaid with like actions. Michael Chase's well-written and heartfelt book reminds us that how we treat ourselves, how we treat others, and how we treat the world can be an amazing transforming energy either for ill or good. Inspired by Michael's own experiences growing up in a house filled with anger, substance abuse, depression, and violence, his story is one of breaking the cycle and making a life based on kindness. This is a book everyone should read. It is particularly a must-read for teachers, pastors, child advocates, parents, medical professionals and anyone who wants to impact their own lives and the lives of others in a powerfully positive way. Kindness changes everything.
