One Person Can Make a Difference

The Power of One

            Do you think that you are a person that people like to be around?  I have done something individually that has had a significant impact on me and to those around me.  I have focused on being more positive throughout many aspects of my life. Many significant people throughout the course of the world were very outgoing people. I think that everyone should try having a more positive outlook daily.

            Many great people in history saw the glass as half full.  Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. thought that one day African Americans could have the same rights as whites and they would live with them side by side. Gandhi thought that his nonviolent ways would beat the tyrant government.  Muhammad Ali was positive about every fight he went in to.  Could you imagine what the world would be like today without the impact of those people?  You too could be a great person if you had a great attitude.

            Everyone has good friends in life that help them get through tough times.  If you are always down and sad then you won’t have as many people that like to be around you.  If you are cheery and bright then people will be drawn to you and you will have more friends.  Everyone has though times in their life such as a death of a loved one but if you have a lot of friends to help you though it then you can get back to being positive.  Having more friends is a good reason to have a great attitude.           

            Another reason that you should work on having a bright attitude is that it positively affects the people around you.  If you smiled at everyone you saw everyday how do you think it could change their life and the lives of others?  If someone has an uplifting chat with you in the hallway then it could brighten their day or even make a bad day a good one.  Wouldn’t you like people to think of you as someone who brightens their days?  I know that I would like be known as a bright person who uplifts everyone that I come in contact with.

            There would be many good long term results if everyone tried to be as bright and positive as they can daily.  For one thing people would have a better time doing everyday monotonous tasks such as loving to mow the lawn because the crisp smell of fresh cut grass.  Another reason being happy would make the world a better place to live is because there would be less accidents if people didn’t get road rage when someone cut them off.  Also I think that there would be significantly less suicides in the world today if people tried be more charming then they are now. So after you read this you should try to be the most positive person that you can possibly be.
