“Be The Change You Wish To See In The World” ~ Gandhi
If there’s one clear situation where it’s clear that we can leave it better than we found it, the opportunity is with ourselves.
Gandhi said, “Be the change you wish to see in the world.” We see this quote frequently, yet sometimes we’ve glossed over it and perhaps taken it for granted.
Assuming that the changes we want in the world are positive – better – than our current experience, what would it feel like to actually “be” the change for the better? If one desires peace, one is peaceful. If one seeks love, be loving. If one wishes progress, be forward-thinking.
How well do you model the changes that you wish to see in the world? Are you aware of opportunities that you could act upon to be more true to your core values? What needs to happen to cause you to be the change you wish to see in the world?
