This battle between good and evil is not a recent occurrence. It has been around for many thousands of years. There have always been people with more and people with less — people who have acted out of compassion and those who have not. As humans being, we have a choice whether to be overwhelmed by the negativity in the world or to use it to motivate ourselves to create value in our everyday circumstances. This definitely includes the workplace!
Yes, it’s difficult to have hope for the future when we are bombarded by so much negative news and might be surrounded by negative people. Clearly, a single individual can create enormous pain and suffering. But, the actions of one person can also make a very positive difference in the world. We can’t predict the potential impact of an encouraging message or a helping hand. But, it is often quite profound. Let’s each do our best to act with compassion, remaining confident that our individual efforts are making a difference. It’s not a sprint – it’s a marathon.
