Читать книгу Paying it Forward: How One Cup of Coffee Could Change the World - Sandi Mann - Страница 6

Prior to 2 February 2013 I, like many people, had never heard of the concept of paying it forward. All this changed when a friend in America posted on Facebook her experience of being bought a coffee as part of a pay-it-forward campaign. I was intrigued, and wrote a blog on this for the Huffington Post. The blog received over 2,000 ‘Likes’ and nearly 300 shares and is still being shared and read today. Clearly this is a topic that resonates with a lot of people – including me. I was hooked.

This book has been borne from this one cup of coffee that my friend Debbie was treated to. It is the story of the psychology of altruism and kindness, and it’s also my story, for I couldn’t research PIF without trying it out for myself. It has changed my world; I hope it changes yours, too.
