How are you making the world a better place?

During a conversation recently, I was reminded about the role we all have to play in building a world where everyone feels. There is so much going on in the world these days. We need to take more action to counter the negative things happening.  
 
In this blog post, we will remind ourselves of the actions we can take to make our world a better place.  
 
Giving back to our Community 
Dedicating our time or other resources to society is a great way to continue investing. If we want to see things improve, we must be part of the change we seek. We have a lot to contribute to our community. 
 
Reflection questions 

• When did you last spend your time or money on local initiatives? 
• What are some ways you can invest in your community? 

 
Preparing the Next Generation 
As parents or caregivers, we are responsible for teaching our children the lessons they need to know about being good stewards of the earth and their community. Our son is almost three, and we are already trying to teach him some little things. 
 
Reflection questions 

• What have you taught your children about being good citizens of their community? 
• What do you wish you knew about your community as a kid growing up? 

 
Continuing to have Hope 
It is crucial for us to continue to see and hope for good in our world. The moment we give up hope, even more things start to happen. We are still on this earth and have the opportunity to experience more good things.  
 
Reflection questions 

• What would you like to see in the world? 
• How are you planning to contribute to the change that is needed? 

 
Final Thoughts: MC's Story 
In 2017, I went through a major life transition shift that led to me making some significant changes in my life. I realized that I wanted to do more to improve my community. There were so many needs that I saw. However, I knew that I needed to start somewhere and then take it one step at a time. I looked at my talents and wondered how to leverage them to help others. My first step was to launch this blog, where I share my experiences and amplify the experiences of extraordinary women. The next step was to align my job with my mission. And in 2019, I was fortunate to find a role where I can help employees from all backgrounds feel like they belong and can thrive. I often ask myself how to continue making the world a great place for my son to grow up in.
