March 2, 2016: Applications

In our group, one of our main goals is to be a more positive influence in the world by contradicting any negativity. This week I was able to seek to be a positive influence to others. First, I had an opportunity this week to be surrounded by family and friends. I noticed that as I smiled more and sought to have more positive language, others were uplifted as well. Another thing I was able to do was when classmates were speaking negatively about things and people, I told them that we should stop being bullies. It is easy to do things and not realize it, but I was able to help them achieve our goal of stopping bullying. I was also able to share a video on Facebook about how Steve Harvey feels about bullying and what we can do to not give those that bully a voice. Because I shared this video, others were able to share it on Facebook.  I want to continue to be an influence for good in the world whether it be to smile or to speak up when others don't realize they are being negative. I also think that sharing positive messages on Facebook is a great way to spread good in the world because it allows others to be prompted to share positivity as well.
