Six degrees of separation. That’s the idea that we are six social connections away from any other person on the planet. Whether it’s true or not is not really important. The idea that you can influence a great number of people without moving far from home is intriguing.
That theory was postulated in the early 20th century, long before the advent of social media. I’d imagine the six degrees is now down to approx 2.5 degrees. Between Facebook, Twitter, WordPress, LinkedIn, What’s app and a myriad of other social media platforms you can be connected with somebody on the other side of the globe in a matter of minutes.
With that in mind, imagine if you helped one other person to become more positive about being themselves, and they passed that lesson onto their friends. It wouldn’t be long before you’d have a world full of positive people.
The next virus that’s going to transit the world is a positive virus. It’s going to have a positive effect on everybody who catches it.
One can dream.
