Motivational Quote - If the world seems cold to you, kindle fires to warm it.

SparkPeople's Comments

What if you don’t like what is going on around you? What if you see something that you disagree with or something that you know you could help with? How about doing something about it? Don’t just sit back and assume that somebody else with take care of things. Step up for yourself! Don’t be afraid or intimidated by other people if something seems important to you. You can start small. Make a difference in little ways. But little fires quickly turn into large ones with a little bit of work.

Step up for yourself! Don’t be afraid or intimidated by other people if something seems important to you.

Intimidating people can fight back to prove they are right.
Stepping up for yourself doesn't necessarily mean your viewpoint will be respected, and bring about change around you when you speak up..
Therefore, it's vital to spend time keeping your own candles of passion,purpose, self-belief and resilience burning, without taking anything personally.
Inner change within yourself can happen continually .
Effective change around us takes much longer, working within guidelines and planning put in place by teams agreeing and committing to an idea.
