Let’s create a Pay it Forward ripple
Paying it Forward in life can create a ripple much further than you realise. April 30th 2015 is ‘Pay it Forward Day’, a day that encourages us to highlight actions that are already happening on a daily basis around the world.
I have the privilege of helping to promote this ripple effect around the world. I help run one of the groups in the UK www.payitforwardUK.net that encourages others to share their experiences of kindness and demonstrates how its reach can spread globally. To put a ‘pay it forward’ into a visual image, how about using a social media demonstration? One person posts a positive picture or quote, their friends and then their friends share this. Before you know it, many people have been positively influenced by the post. They then go on to help others as they become more positive and the ripple expands. 30 - Health
By helping that person in the street, or by allowing that car out in front of you, you feel much better about yourself. They will appreciate the gesture and they may well act more positively throughout the day themselves. That act of kindness ripples forward in the world. We’ve got seven billion people to reach so it needs to be a big ripple.
