I am shaking things up today — you know, a change is a good as a rest and all that.
Plus, I hadn’t organized a Guest blog for today :)! Which brings me back to the question — if you are interested in being a guest blogger, the guidelines are really simple and easy. Fame. Fortune. Fans. and all that stuff await you.
Okay. Maybe not fame and fortune, but you’ll find fans and definitely GRATITUDE and a sense of the wonder at the joy of making a difference in another’s life with your words and thoughts on what it means for you, ‘to make a difference’.
Seriously, I’d love to have your submission. It only needs to be 300 to 700 words. Any angle on making a difference that you choose. Whether it’s something you’ve done or experienced. Something you feel or think about making a difference, or a difference you’d like to see in the world. The slate is open, and so is the Sunday Guest Blog — open to your submission.
In the meantime, I thought I’d share a powerful quote from Leonardo da Vinci who said, sometime in his life between 1452-1519 —
“I have been impressed with the urgency of doing. Knowing is not enough; we must apply. Being willing is not enough, we must do.”
To be the difference we want to see in the world, we must do that which we want to see.
To make a difference, we must do.
The desire to make a difference in the world is inherent in all of us. We are born to make a difference. Our very presence makes a difference because in our being present in the world, we change the flow of life around us — in our families, our communities, our schools… everywhere we go, we bring our energy, our knowing, our thoughts, our actions — make them count.
And the Sunday BLog is one easy way to make a difference!
Go ahead. Try it.
Just post me a comment and I’ll email you back. Or simply email me your desire/post — and I’ll put it up.
Thanks!
Have a beautiful and blessed Sunday.
I am willing to stretch and contribute to this also!
