Today’s quotation is in relation to the Inner Development Goal of
Mobilization skills.
The IDG website has this to say about it:
“Skills in inspiring and mobilizing others to engage in shared purposes.”
My response is:
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.” – Margaret Mead
And you? What are your thoughts?
On 31 October I am running a free online creative conversation about the IDGs. More information and bookings here.
"No matter how you voted in this 'great optics vs shit arguments referendum'; remember it is not the be-all and end all. The sun rose on Sunday morning after the vote and the world didn't end. So, for each of us who believe in equality, and in the betterment of this country and all our people; we must now dedicate ourselves to First Nations empowerment, every day, for the rest of our lives. Change comes through growth, sometimes painful growth, and ticking a box and moving on is barely lifting a finger and is not going to formant real change. Get informed, read your history, join First Nations protests, volunteer for First Nations programmes, meet and listen to First Nations groups and community leaders; and dedicate yourself to engage and work for equality every day. This is just the beginning." Charlie Hill-Smith co-author Crime Scene Australia with Uncle Robbie Thorpe.
I think of Florence Nightingale.
And Helen Keller.
