Lean Quote: Anybody Can Make a Difference, and Sometimes the Smallest Action Makes the Biggest Impact

On Fridays I will post a Lean related Quote. Throughout our lifetimes many people touch our lives and leave us with words of wisdom. These can both be a source of new learning and also a point to pause and reflect upon lessons we have learned. Within Lean active learning is an important aspect on this journey because without learning we can not improve.

“The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have any.”   —  Alice Walker

Since 1987,
March has been recognized as Women’s History Month. Originally initiated by
Congress in 1981, the first Women’s History Week was celebrated in 1982. But
because one week is hardly enough, by the time 1987 rolled around there was a
full month to celebrate the women who came before, the women of today, and the
generations of women to follow.

“The most
common way people give up their power is by thinking they don’t have
any.” 

Alice Walker

 

By seeing
themselves as worthless.

By believing
the lie that they don’t have the ability to make a change.

But
self-deprecation is a form of self-sabatoge.

Negative
thoughts breed negative outcomes.

Thinking we
are going to mess up, often sets up to do just that.

Luckily the
opposite is also true.

A positive
outlook gives way to positive results.

When we
believe in ourselves, we rise to the occasion. 

When we have
faith in our abilities, we grow limitless. 

There is a
power in confidence.

A power in
knowing you are enough.

In believing
you are okay exactly as you are.

You are so
much stronger than you know.

Your
potential is boundless.

All you have
to do is believe.

 

Anybody can
make a difference, and sometimes the smallest action makes the biggest impact.
