One little corner

There’s one little corner of your life where you can make an improvement today. Take the opportunity to do so.

There’s one little corner of the world where you can make a difference right now. Go ahead and be the person to make that difference.

One little corner may not seem like much. One little corner may not appear to be worth the trouble.

Yet when you get things working well in that one little corner, something wonderful happens. You discover how delightful, inspiring, fulfilling and compelling the experience of achievement can be.

And then you start looking for other little corners where you can work the same magic. One little corner after another, you begin to have a major positive impact.

To achieve great things requires no great effort, just a modest effort repeated again and again. Start right now by improving one little corner, and you’re on your way to change the world.
