Are you the agent of change or the person to change?
There are often two factors that make us who we are today.
We are who we are today because of nature and external influence.
We often pick up certain habits because we mix with certain people and these habits can be good or bad.
We can influence others as well as being influenced depending on our decision to accept or reject.
Parents and teachers
When our children and students are young, we can change and create certain good habits in them.
They can also pick up some bad habits by imitating us when we are unaware of things we should not have done.
Young parents, who used to have good temperament before having a child, can often get frustrated over many things resulting constant anger.
We can decide to impact our children positively but some parents can also be manipulated by their children whenever their children start to cry.
Our firm decision can often become the change factors in our children that can become part of them even until adulthood.
Our mindset and decision, at every stage of our children, are important and crucial.
In our blockchain platform
Every crypto person knows that crypto is still at the low when compared with the price last year at this time.
We often get discouraged by what we see and what others say can affect us greatly.
We can also be influenced by someone to downvote another because we trust and believe the influential blockchain giant.
When our platform is down or certain change is needed, we may always point our finger at another whom we think can become the change agent.
When we point one finger at others, the other three of our fingers point back to us actually.
We should make an effort to become the positive agent of change on our platform rather than waiting for a change.
One of the easiest ways is to continue to write quality articles to ensure the standard of the platform.
Give positive side of the story rather than the negative side since we cannot help even if we give a negative report.
Start new initiative that we think we can help on the platform.
I have started certain small initiative and I am sure some of my readers are aware how I try to help the platform.
My impact may not be significant but it is my little contribution and effort.
When everyone puts in a little to help, I believe the platform can be greatly supported. With unity, there is power.
Be the positive change
When people in our office or around us are down, we can be the positive ones to give positive possibilities of the situation.
We can have the mindset that everything is possible even if we fail the first time since we can try repeatedly until we get it right.
When we role model the positive energy, people around us can start to be influenced by us.
They can still be negative but they can sense the difference in us.
Very often, these people may come to us for encouragement when they feel no one can because of our positive mindset and energy.
Let’s be the lighthouse when darkness is surrounding us.
We can direct others to see the light even when things look bad.
If everyone chooses to be in darkness, there is really no hope to see a possible future.
Even when others say we are crazy and being too positive, they may soon realise that we have given them hope of a chance or a possibility.
In conclusion
Our good habits and bad habits are due to the influence of others and our decision to become who we are today.
An agent of change is a decision as it is always easier to be influenced when another stronger character overpowers us.
We must have a strong determination that we can make a positive influence around us and we can be the light rather than darkness.

Change always starts from within ourselves.
