I came across this quote the other day, and since it made me think, I figured I’d share it with you and make you think as well! Schweitzer accurately labels most people with his statement about being a “good person” and doing one’s work well. I’ve been that person numerous times. There really is more to life than that, though. Life is so much more fulfilling when you willingly help people out. It doesn’t have to be a big thing. In fact, it can be as small as holding the door open for someone who has their hands full, or talking with a friend about how their day went. The goal is simply to move yourself out of the spotlight and focus on someone else for a change.
So what do you think? What can you do today to help out the people around you?

First off, this video you made is awesome! And I love your analysis of it; something as simple as holding a door open can create positive change. It makes me think of the Butterfly Effect – how one small event can have such a large impact. We never really know how far our good deeds and acts of kindness may reach!
