Clean

"Let everyone sweep in front of his own door, and the whole world will be clean."
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Have you ever wanted to make a big difference in the world but felt that the problem was just too overwhelming and one person couldn't possibly make a dent in it. How much can just one person do anyway? We seem to have it in our mind that we are the only person who desires to make that particular difference, whatever it may be. We figure that we are alone in the world. So we frequently give up and don't even do those things that we can do.

What if you enlisted the help of other people? What if you were able to find just one other person who shared your vision and also wanted to make that difference. Now your efforts are twice as effective. You can accomplish double what you could do before. And now both of you are motivating each other, so you will put forth that much more action. Imagine if each of you could find another person to help.

If you keep doing this, and the people you enlist keep doing this, your efforts will grow exponentially. Pretty soon, you will have so many people helping that you can be successful, no matter how big the change you desired was. If everyone swept in front of his own door, the whole world would be clean." Any problem is solvable if you get enough people to help. You don't have to do it alone. All it takes to change the world is to find someone else who shares your vision.
