Last night I came across an article on the LDS for Youth website titled, ‘What is Your Chain Reaction?’
I thought to myself, ‘I should totally share this as my thought for the evening with my family!’. As I was reading through it, my family started thinking, this is good, ‘Is this something you posted on your LDSUnPlugged blog?’ I continued with reading it as if I had wrote it and the looks on their faces were, “Wow, we’re impressed.” : ) I was tempted to just continue on as if it were my own, yet quickly told them where I had found the article and we continued to read and discuss the great wisdom that was in the question, ‘What is Your Chain Reaction.’
In a nutshell, the article re-affirms the time tested philosophy of “every action has an equal and opposite reaction.” When you really thing about Chain Reactions, you can either find Positive Chain Reactions or Negative Chain Reactions.
Negative Chain Reactions:
- Being down all day
- Tearing down others
- Bullying
- Having an attitude of Entitlement
- Judging
- Frowning
Positive Chain Reactions:
- Being upbeat all day
- Lifting Others
- Friendly
- Having an attitude of Gratitude
- Loving
- Smiling
So, get the picture? If you are negative throughout your day and life, you will start a negative chain reaction… If you are positive throughout your day and life, you will start a positive chain reaction. The choice lies in each of us. If we chose the latter, we will see great things come to light and bless the lives of many! Let us all commit to be a Positive Chain Reactor!
