When Someone Does Something, There Is A Ripple Effect!

Dear Nikken Friend,

One of my favorite words is Influencer. I did a YouTube video about this. Whatever you read, listen to, or look at has an effect on you, and sociologists tell us that even the shiest introvert will influence 10,000 people over the course of his or her lifetime. Our lives shape the people around us in profound ways. Whether we intend to or not, we affect others through our influence. Do read the full article on Intentional Influence.

When someone does something, there is a ripple effect!

A responsibility that we cannot evade in life is the power of personal influence. The silent, subtle radiation of your personality, the effect of even little words and acts, the trifles that are often never considered, is tremendous. Every moment of life we are changing, to a degree, the life of the whole world. Everyone has an atmosphere, which is affecting every other person. So silent and unconsciously is this influence working, that we may forget that it exists…
-William George Jordan, The Majesty of Calmness
