The Tipping Point



A tipping point is defined as "the critical point in a situation, process or system beyond which a significant and often unstoppable effect or change takes place."

This concept can also refer to the point at which anomalous acts become the norm.

Most often this concept is referenced in connection to negative acts- crime, racism, pollution...

But instead, how can we harness the power of critical mass in connection to acts of positivity?

What is the tipping point at which kindness and compassion become the norm and intolerance and hatred an anomaly?

What can we do to shift the balance?

Here's the answer.

Every kind word, every act of compassion, every good intention can move us closer to that tipping point.

Each of us has the power, the responsibility, to tip the scales.

What will you do to help?
