In 2015, Alexander Walton came up with a creative idea. He penned a heartfelt short story, placed it in colorful envelopes, and distributed them randomly throughout his city. Each envelope included a small gift symbolizing hope. This initiative, named Find My Story, gained traction and eventually spread worldwide thanks to the generosity and support of many individuals.

Over the next five years, Walton shared three different stories, engaged hundreds of volunteers, sent out thousands of envelopes, and received an overwhelming number of heartfelt responses from those who discovered and opened these envelopes.

This journey inspired The Kind Mind Method, transforming the author’s life in unexpected ways. Walton continues to promote kindness and positivity through his written works and various projects.
