The change of one simple behavior can affect others behaviors and thus change many things. —Jean Baer—
The effects on every action are far-reaching.
Our response to a particular set of circumstances will influence the lives of all persons concerned. Harsh words one time, a smile and praise another, will make their
mark in the system that includes us all. Our actions and interactions are interdependent, each one having been affected by preceding actions and in turn affecting those that follow.
A single action has an impact on our subsequent actions. An angry retort is likely to influence our behavior toward the next unsuspecting person who gains our attention.
A grateful attitude expressed will soften the harsh realities of life for the giver as well as the receiver. The principle underlying all behavior is that it breeds itself repeatedly. Positive, respectful action can become habitual.
Let me remember that I’m creating habits by my every action today. I can make them good ones as easily as bad ones.
