Taking action is the only way to solve our issues and change our circumstances.

It sounds obvious, but many people overlook this simple fact.

If we don’t take action, don’t change something – nothing will change for the better.

We give away our power every day, without realising it in many cases.

One of the flock?

When people talk over us, we meekly let them.

We complain about poor service to our partners and not to the restaurant manager.

We accept being poorly treated at work, as we think that is just the way it is.

We follow the herd and don’t take the time to consider what values we wish to express in our lives.

Over time this has a debilitating effect on our souls.

We are beaten down, listless, crushed by the weight of the world.

If we find ourselves in this unhappy position, there is only one thing that will make a difference – taking action to change it.

We must find the strength and courage inside to do something to address the little injustices that affect our lives on a daily basis.

And the lives of those around us.

By being true to ourselves and our values, we can learn to be authentic.

Be the person who starts a conversation with a stranger.

Be the person who is kind for no other reason than that it is good to be so.

Be the person who gives space to others to fully express themselves.

Be the person who shows compassion towards all living creatures.

Be the person who rises above the ordinary and touches others with the extraordinary.

The world needs more of you.
