The Power Of One

The Power of One! This week we're going to look at some things with the number one as our theme.

We live in a society that puts an emphasis on more being better. How many followers do I have on social media? How many likes did I get on a social media post? More money. More stuff. More responsibility. We just keep wanting more and it keeps piling on.

Today think of the power of one. The impact you can have on one's person life. Just one.

If we can positively impact one person per day with a positive interaction, act, reaction, a smile or friendly greeting we have had a great day and made a positive difference.

Think of the power that one act will have if done every day for 365 days a year. The person you impact impacts another and then they impact another. You have now impacted three people and it could only keep growing because you did one thing. You did the right thing and treated someone in a positive way.

Don't worry about the numbers. Take care of the one in front of you. That is the one you can affect and influence. One person can make a difference. That one is you.
