Catalyst 12 – How to Change the World

This is for catalyst
twelve at creative therapy. The catalyst is “If you could do
something to make a big impact on the world, what would it be?”

For this week’s catalyst, I wanted to do something different. I feel
very strongly that every one of us can change the world by doing
seemingly small things. We all have the power and the ability to make
this world a better place. So I made a little minibook with my ideas on
how you can change the world:

Here are the sections:
1. Help others: Imagine if everyone spent a few more hours a week
volunteering? We could make such a huge impact on the world. Or maybe
something tiny. Help hold the door for the person coming behind you. Do
a tiny kind gesture, you can never be sure what effect that has on the
rest of the world.
2. Be kind: Be kind and loving to people. Always assume the best of
others. I think if everyone did that, the world would be a different
place.
3. Have a child: Children are our future. They represent the world of
possibilities, they are going to create the tomorrow we live. They will
definitely change the world.
4. School and Family First: I believe that everything starts with family
and education. Those are the two pillars of any human and if you get
those right, your impact on the world will be that much stronger.
5. Change yourself: It all starts with you. Don’t wait for others to
change. Start with the man in the mirror.
I think the world is changed by seemingly tiny things all the time. If
we do any of these five, I think we are moving the world in a more
positive direction.
