It is so easy to feel small and as if we aren’t making any real difference in the world.
But it’s important to recognize the small actions we take do make a difference and in many cases they make a difference in ways we may never know or see.
Today we are going to tap recognize that we do add value to the world around us.
I add value to the world.
(audio 5m01s)
I give myself permission…To recognize the fact…That I do make a difference in the world…That I do add value to those around me…That my presence is significant…All I can control is my choice…All I can control is my response…All I can control is my emotions…But I recognize that is not a small thing…I recognize that is not insignificant…Even though there are times it feels really insignificant…Even though there are times it feels like it’s not enough…One person…One choice…One thought…In such a big world…But every great thing that has ever happened…Has come because of choice…Has come because of simple action…By individuals…My choice makes a difference…My thoughts make a difference…I make a difference…I add value to those around me…And many of the things that I add…And much of the transformation that I’m responsible for…I will never recognize…Because my choices ripple out…In positive ways…Into the world in ways that I will not know…And even though I can’t recognize them…That does not make them less significant…That does not make them less important…I give myself permission…To be easy and gentle with myself…Confident in the fact…That my effort and my choices are significant…And it’s important that I make them in the world…Because I make a difference in the world.
