I've had it with being worried or even afraid about our future. I'm over it.
It's time to go on the offensive!
Rather than worry about data privacy disappearing, it's time to create apps which do NOT track you, which do NOT sell your data; those which set you free.
Let's create a world in which we are free 🙂
Who's with me?
Is it time to look for a better future?
I think so. So why not create it yourself?
After all, we are all participants in our own lives. Some changes are small with a big outcome, some changes are big with a small outcome. Some changes are somewhere in between.
All that matters is that you take small actions that add up over time to create the life you want. 🙂

Just in case your country is sliding into authoritarianism also:
If you ever feel like hiding away from the world, remember, there are people who enjoy your company. Go have a coffee or tea or lemonade with them and enjoy the good times.
That or plan a revolution to bring about positive change 🙂
Death to the dustbunny!
Yes, small actions such as looking after my environment has a big impact on my life. First, I look after my small flat, then my small town, then the world 🥳
Why does this article remind me of the situation we find ourselves in today?
I think it's awful how quickly democracies around the world are being brought to their knees.

#SmallActionsMatter and sometimes, these small actions turn into big actions like the use of renewable energy in Spain. 🌞
Because, irrespective of your politics, oil will run out one day and we better be prepared.
It makes me happy to know that there are so many organisations that want to create a better world. ❤️

If you think your vote doesn't count, think again!
"The initial vote count had incumbent Republican David Yancey ahead by 13 votes. After a canvas that included provisional ballots, Yancey's lead was cut to 10 votes.[15] Following a recount, Yancey trailed Democratic challenger Shelly Simonds by one vote out of 23,215 cast."

Small actions do indeed make a big impact - as long as they happen regularly.
For example, if you jog for 3km / 2 miles every day, then you'd have covered a half marathon every week 🙂
Or in other words: you'd be running 100 marathons a year!!! 🥳
If you are not ready to run for 3km, how about you start walking just a few minutes and slowly build up? You'll be running your first marathon before long 🙂
Remember, 3.5% of the population is enough to change a regime with non-violent means ❤️

It only takes 3.5% of the national population to bring about change through civil action such as peaceful protests.
Be part of it!

Regret having voted for Trump? Regret having voted for Brexit? Regret having voted for right wing parties?
It is not to late to change course! In the next elections, vote for a party that puts social benefits for everyone first and foremost.
What's good for the greater society is good for you as an individual.
"For many of us, it doesn’t cost much to improve someone’s life, and we can do much more of it"
How can you make someone's life better? ❤️
If you feel as if the world around us is getting more depressive by the day, you are right. Crazy things are happening, wars are intensified, trade wars started, ...
This is the ideal time to get out there and do something about it.
Pick a topic you care about (equality, democracy, climate, justice...) and look for a group you can join. Maybe, you'll even attend a march, make some friends and know that you did your bit to make the world a better place ❤️
Are you wanting to live in a better world but don't know how to make it happen?
How about you start with buying from companies that deserve your money. Favoring smaller "ma & pa" shops, shopping locally and being aware of what the organisation gets up to, are all important decisions especially for larger purchases.
If you cannot afford these small changes, please think of yourself first and foremost. You need it. ❤️

Feeling overwhelmed by the world’s problems? Start small.
Find out how you fit into your society. Who is the mayor of your town? Who is in the local council? What needs changing in your village?
Pick one topic that you are interested in and start learning about it. Once you have more information, get involved yourself.
Its one small action at a time that allows you to bring about positive change. The important thing is to start. 🙂
Happy International Woman's Day 🥳
One small action we all can take is to champion women in all areas of live:
- work: help them show off their good work & get noticed
- at home: share the burden of elder and childcare, chores, errands
- in public: step in if you see a women getting harassed
It doesn't matter if you are a man, a woman, trans, straight, gay, lesbian or define yourself differently. All that matters is that together we strive towards being equal.
You want to know the easy way of making the world a better place?
Get involved in the running of your government. 🙂
It doesn't have to be big or take a lot of time. It can be as small as showing up for local city council meetings. Making your voice heard is the only way that politicians know what you want.
Spend that one or two hours a month and see how your life improves 🙂
Or you can run for office yourself. ❤️
#SmallActionsMatter #CityCouncil #Runforoffice #politics #BeKind
We all have the power to speak up and to be heard 🙂
