In a time-pressed society, can you still make a difference in three minutes? Absolutely! Here are some “quickies”:
- You can share a new idea with ten people by writing them an e-mail.
- You can buy some food for the homeless you see every day across the street.
- You can write an apology e-mail to a former close friend.
- You can call up your spouse and tell him or her how much you care about your relationship.
- You can talk to your kid to find out his or her happiest moment of the day.
- You can climb up the stairs every day for health benefits.
Do one “positive” three-minute task every day for the next six months (even when you don’t feel like doing it). When you multiply these three minutes over time you will see their compounding power.
The experience of doing “three-minute” activities every day to explore their compounding power is a journey worth taking.
