How an Individual can Make the Nation a Better Place

I am in a humanities class right now and there are a lot of radical ideas that i am reading about that answer my questions of how I (which I am not rich and don't have a lot of money) can change the world when I am just a citizen with no authority or power.

Here's some Idea's

1) REMEMBER that energy flows where attention goes, and the thing in question will surely grow. This means that simply taking the time to have a conversation about how people should be treated better, posting a blog entry, publishing an article, writing a letter to a magazine editor, and posting videos on You tube- you are feeding the life of the concept of kindness. It will spread if you feed it as often as you can.

Feed the nation starving for kindness

2) Try finding a website that allows you to create your own bumper sticker and have as many sent to you as possible, saying something like "BEING NICE IS A REALLY GOOD IDEA" and "MAY KINDNESS LIVE ON" are some ideas (okay, yeah that last one was pretty lame but you get the idea). Then pass them out into peoples mail boxes with a note that says "Hello, I am passing these bumper stickers out in hopes that people will put them on their cars to be a constant reminder that kindness is a concept that can die in society- and this is my way of trying to strengthen it." Most people will like the message and support it. Give them extras for friends too. Soon you'll see the message all around town; and repetition is a form of brainwashing. In this case we are using the knowledge that corporations use in advertising to brainwash us to buy their product but we are doing it for the personal gains of everyone.

3) Dream big. Set high goals for yourself to get yourself into a position to which you can make a difference. Study media psychology to find out ways that the media brainwashes us to use their products, and use that to brainwash people into being nice. Your working with a higher power now, and love is a powerful motivator.

NOTE: Don't get screwed over by being nice. Know when to be assertive, and never trust anyone because they will take advantage of you. Be positive, but don't take that too far and end up being a doormat or something :)
