"Everyone has something they can do. Whatever means you have to make the world a better place, you need to do it. Even if we won't see the fruits of this in our lifetime, start now." --Daniel Goleman

Can Compassion Change the World?

In this year of his 80th birthday, the Dalai Lama has collaborated with psychologist and bestselling "Emotional Intelligence" author Daniel Goleman to issue a call to action for creating a more compassionate world. To write "A Force for Good: The Dalai Lama's Vision for Our World," Daniel Goleman synthesized cutting-edge research from places like Stanford, Emory, and the University of Wisconsin to highlight the power and regenerative ability of cultivating compassion and how it can change our world. In this interview, he shares what he learned during the process.
