Those who are crazy enough to think they can change the world just might do it.
Whether you think you can or think you can’t you are right.
Are you grateful for what you have?
Do you express gratitude for it?
How often do express gratitude to yourself? The people around you? The world?
If you are like most people in this crazy busy world, we don’t stop enough to express gratitude to the people and things around us. And the fact that we don’t do it just makes it harder. It is a habit that needs practice.
But if you are grateful for what you have life will become abundantly easier and better.
This is simple, but not easy.
Here is your challenge to make yourself a better person and the world a better place.
Every day for the next 75 days take to social media and express something you are grateful for.
I know it sounds too simple, but have you tried it? Do you express gratitude every day? Do you let the world know of your gratitude?
This challenge will make you better by stopping to think once a day about what you are grateful for and then expressing it to the world. We all know that social media should be called the social shit show. If it bleeds it leads has gone from the “old media” to the new media. And continues to get worse.
Here is your chance to influence that. Here is your chance to make social media a better place for everyone that sees your post. Yes, you will get more likes, shares, and interaction if you post that the world is ending over your bike ride was fun. That was my post yesterday. I crashed pretty hard about one minute into my ride. Got up and pushed on to ride 30 miles. And then posted I was grateful to be wearing my helmet because I bounced my head off the pavement and was able to continue on.
Don’t worry about measuring the likes on your post. Worry about helping the one person that will see your post. If you can change one person for the better, and they can change one person, and that person can change another person, we really can change the world. It all starts with you.
