Wonder, Gratitude and Change
As we forward-march to 2013’s drum, let’s not forget our capacity for wonder, gratitude, and collective impact. Because the ones who are crazy enough to think they can change the world… are the ones who do. (Carson Kahn, Medium)

On Wonder
Instead of imposing your story/ies, you need to open up, to become receptive and unjudging. To listen, I mean really listen, you have to be curious. To listen deeply, you have to suspend your own assumptions and convictions. (The Wonder of Storytelling)
On Gratitude
Many days, I try to humble myself and hold a 2-minute gratitude session… I don’t do it every day, but let me tell you, on the days I do it, it makes me very happy… Why should the simple act of thinking about who and what I’m grateful for make such a big difference in my life?
Just a few reasons:
- Because it reminds you of the positive things in your life…
- Because it turns bad things into good things…
- Because it reminds you of what’s important…
- Because it reminds you to thank others…
(Leo Babauta, zenhabits)
On Change
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. (Mahatma Gandhi, positivityblog.com)
The rest is up to you… Good luck!
