I believe that – whether big or small – every one of us wants to change the world for the better in some way. Every once in a while, though, we need a little reminder that changing the world doesn’t come from changing others… it comes from changing ourselves.
Even though Gandhi didn’t ever actually say it (yes, it’s a misquote, but more on that later), there is some merit to the quote that we need to “be the change we want to see in the world.”
These quotes will help give you a little motivation to be the change, so you can help inspire change in the world for the better.
