The Ripple Revolution is built on the cumulative power of small. It is built on the cumulative power of individuals, and on the cumulative impact of small changes.
Much of being a Ripple Revolutionary is simply awareness. Every day we’re immersed in opportunities to make small differences. For the most part we don’t take advantage of them because we simply don’t notice.
With that in mind, here are 20 easy ways to make a difference today.
- Smile at someone.
- Encourage someone.
- Make a loan on Kiva.
- Buy a cow, or a goat, or a chicken via Heifer International.
- Brainstorm ways to conserve. Commit to one.
- Give someone a hug.
- Pick up a piece of trash.
- Tell someone what you admire about them.
- Stop and talk to a homeless person. Look them in the eye and treat them as an equal.
- Plant a tree.
- Tell someone why they matter to you.
- Tell someone why you think they matter to the world.
- Teach someone one thing you know how to do that would help them.
- Listen to someone fully, intently, and compassionately.
- Start composting with a worm bin.
- Send healing energy, prayers, or thoughts toward someone who needs it.
- Plant a vegetable garden with the intent of sharing the harvest.
- Host a positive movie/documentary party.
- Buy locally grown produce.
- Read to a child.
I would love to hear more ideas from you. What are some small and easy ways you could change the world tomorrow?
