“Everyone
thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.” —Leo
Tolstoy
When you
want to change the world, you must change yourself first. You must change your
perception of the world. You must change your attitude, personality, and
behavior. You must change your mindset, skillset, and toolset. You must improve
your attitude of gratitude. You must emphasize serving others with a great
heart. You must have passion, compassion, and vision.
Rosa Parks
refused to give her a seat in the bus when the driver asked her. Her refusal to
give up her seat changed entire America with Martin Luther King Jr. starting
the civil rights movement of equality of blacks with whites. The change started
from her. Mahatma Gandhi was pushed out of the train when he was traveling in
the first-class compartment in South Africa leading to the freedom struggle.
Mother Teresa underwent several struggles and sufferings in her initial years
in India. That changed her mind to serve leper in India. She redefined service.
Nelson Mandela was jailed for almost 28 years who changed his strategy to fight
against apartheid based on the Gandhian principles of non-violence. Buddha was
deeply moved when he saw people crying over the dead body. That changed his
mind and he founded Buddhism. All these leaders changed themselves to bring
change to society. Therefore, change must start within you to change the
outside world. Change is from the inside out.
Takeaway: Change is
possible when people understand themselves through self-awareness and come out
of their comfort zone. Change yourself to change the world.
