How far does character reach?
It is something within you that you share every time you are with someone else.
It comes out in your day-to-day actions.
Your thought processes are built around your character.
Your judgements come from your character.
Your self-assessment comes from your character.
Your business dealings come from your character.
Every time you have a thought about some event anywhere, your character adds to the strength of the event.
Where you focus your thought not only affects you, it affects others who are reacting or responding to the event.
A study with random number generating computers showed a distinct definable effect when a world-wide scheduled event was monitored (from the movie “What the Bleep?).
When you continue to build your good character even when it looks like it is meaningless as far as the way the rest of the world is reacting, it still does have an effect.
When you model good behavior and good character in all the little ways, it has an effect.
When you teach it to your children and your students and use it at work and in how you conduct meetings, and how you treat salespeople, it has an effect.
You are using the tools you have to be an uplifting presence in every situation.
It is contagious.
People notice.
They respond will a more elevated mood, and it contributes to their next action.
This is happening all over the world, and it is one of the main causes for improvement in all the ways we can measure it.
Is there a need for more?
Of course.
So know that your expression of good character is part of an important movement, both within and all around you.
