Community - A sense of community

From communities, we can grow, uplift and support each other.

“We need a sense of community, a sense that we are all in

together. If we have not sense of community, the

(American) dream will wither.” William J. Clinton

 

Pay It Forward and the 6 degrees of separation

I like to combine the principles of Pay It Forward and the 6th degree of separation .

Here is how they can be defined:

• Pay it Forward: opposite of payback: when someone does a good dead for you, instead of paying them back, pay it forward by doing a good deed for someone else.
• Six degrees of separation is the idea that all people are six, or fewer, social connections away from each other. As a result, a chain of "a friend of a friend" statements can be made to connect any two people in a maximum of six steps.

 

Combining these 2 principles, to me, feel like an efficient way to bring positive impact and changes.

Try it, what have you got to lose?

 

Women supporting women

A History teacher once told me:

“In all societies, positive changes come from women, by

women.”

I realise now how true she was.

Women have that natural “I got your back” kinda girlfriend mentality. We have that innate way to network and support one another.

I have been lucky to cross paths with amazing women who supported, uplifted and bettered me, I want to be that too to others.

 

Make a difference

From visiting for a coffee an isolated friend to donating to a charitable organisation, all these little things we all can do, all together amount to a lot.

 

So let’s!
