Doing Your Bit – Leveraging Others

So imagine if you were standing beside a lake and you had a handful of small pebbles.  One by one you throw them into the lake, each pebble causing a ripple that spreads out dissipating just as far as the eye can see.  You would be disturbing the water a bit but not much.  Now imagine 100 people standing with you doing the same thing.  Then imagine a hundred thousand people or one million people each throwing a small little pebble in the water.

I think the water on that lake would start to cause some waves to happen on the other side.  In fact the other side of that lake might be too far away for you all to see the impact you were creating.

That’s what I believe will happen if we all do a little bit in our corners of the world to impact humanity.  At first we might not even notice the affect it is having however, as more people get involved and do their little bit, that impact is bound to send waves of change throughout the planet.

Wishful Thinking?  Join me next as we continue this journey!
