We all can be an agent of change!

As our nation enters this new era of transition and change it is critically important that we as a nation take personal inventory of ourselves. I think its important to understand that many have voted for change in the direction of this country, but my question is how many of us are willing to change ourselves? How many of us are truly ready for change? How many of us a willing to give of ourselves in ways that we never gave before? How many of us are willing to become true agents of change?

You may be asking your what is an agent of change? An agent of change is a person or group of people how recognize a condition that exist in their home, neighborhood, community or government that is not satisfactory and they make a selfless decision to effect positive change in that situation. We all have the ability to be agents of change. We banned together as a nation to become agents of change to elect a President that aims to effect positive change in our government and the World. We all must continue to be agents of change on a micro level (i.e. in our homes and neighborhoods) so that true change can be reflected on a Macro level (i.e. community safety, pride, growth and development).

I believe that as a nation are on the road to truly being a united country and the only way that we can truly achieve unity is by building, growing and achieving together. In a lot of ways that means evaluating selfish ambitions and see if they will help to meet the greater good for you, your family and humanity as a whole. The main pillar that an agent of change possesses is that s/he is not afraid to change themselves.

I challenge you to be an agent of change! www.m4brs.org
