If you’ve wondered what you can do to help spread social change, Raam Dev has united the insights of over 40 bloggers in putting together an amazing (and FREE) ebook to help you get started: Small Ways to Make a Big Difference.

This beautiful and simple ebook contains over 100 ways you can make a small change in your perspective, outlook, diet, or lifestyle that can ripple through communities and foster the kind of culture we really want to live in. I’m extremely proud to have contributed in my own small way to this project!

Over 40 amazing bloggers contributed to this work, including Farnoosh Brock of Prolific Living, Hulbert Lee of From Bottom Up, Ivan Campuzano, Katie Tallo of Momentum Gathering, Angela Artemis from Powered By Intuition, Everett Bogue of Far Beyond The Stars, Jarkko Laine, Karen Ruby of A Meaningful Existence, Jenna Francisco of This is My Happiness, Scott Young, Jeffrey Tang of The Art of Great Things, Audrey Scott of UncorneredMarket, Jessica Reeder of Love and Trash, Matt Bailey of A World of Inspiration, Dragos Roua, Cody McKibben of ThrillingHeroics, Kelly Lee Phipps of TravelingMagi, and many more!

My contributions covered vegetarianism, recognizing interdependency, switching from disposable products to reusable, and holding my ground in the face of conflict or opposition. Several of these topics were discussed by other bloggers as well. I am thrilled that Raam did not combine repeated topics into one, and instead kept everyone’s words as they were. This shows how important these themes are to all of us, and that each of us approaches our beliefs and actions in our own unique ways.

These words resonate with me powerfully, as I actively strive to be responsible for my life on Earth. I believe wholeheartedly in the goodness of people, in one individual’s ability to live a more conscious and liberated life, and take part in moving our world forward to a better tomorrow.

    Lynn, thanks for the awesome intro to the ebook. spacer

    You hit the nail on the head with your explanation for why I decided not to combine duplicate entries: It shows how even though we are all unique and we all have different perspectives, they all point in a similar direction, towards a similar goal. I think that’s a powerful pattern and one that can help move not just entire communities, but entire populations in a positive direction.

    Thank you for your incredibly insightful contributions to this project!

    This is great! We all really can make a difference. Sometimes it is something that we think is small and easy that can make a HUGE impact for the better.

      Thanks for commenting, Robert! I think people often feel they have to create massive change in order for it to be worthwhile, but they don’t realize that small changes add up to become big change. Changing the world starts with the people that live in it. Hope you have a good week!
