Every Monday, we share bite-sized treats to kick-start your week.
These are worth your attention this week:

Read this week's blog to find out about the 5 Remarkable Leadership Benefits of Everyday Gratitude.
VIDEO: Brother David Steindl-Rast is a Benedictine monk who knows something about each and every one of us - we want to be happy. This TED talk Want to be Happy? Be Grateful shares his theory to unlock happiness.... you might be surprised what it is!
