Proclaim Activism and support a cause for safe futures

“First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew. Then they came for the Communists and I did not speak out because I was not a Communist. Then they came for the trade unionists and I did not speak out because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me”

Martin Niemˆller

This quote has a very clear message of pro activism. Long silence can make the things unrepairable. It is important that we act as a catalyst for change. Take charge and make a difference. Your single step can help us making this world a better place. It will add a new dimension to your life.

I am not asking you to protest or confront. The idea is to transform the people on the inside as well as on the outside in order to create any meaningful change in the world. I am writing down here a plan which will help you to decide how you can participate in bringing about a positive change in this world and making this world a better place to live:

• Think of five things that you would like to improve or change and act on them.
  
  
• Find a cause that you truly believe in. Listen to your heart and soul.
  
  
• Be passionate. Your passion is the only thing that will carry you through the rough patches.
  
  
• Propose a project which you believe will promote your cause and present it to others who may support your project.
  
  
• Spread the word about the cause that is close to your heart through friends and relatives. Use web/internet to spread the word.
  
  
• Read/listen to the media on a regular basis to learn about recent development regarding the cause you support.
  
  
• Carry out research to discover organizations which support your viewpoint or cause. Educate yourself by learning what these organizations know and have done about your cause.
  
  
• Provide a one time contribution to any of these organizations which advocate your viewpoint.
  
  
• Support these organizations by becoming a member, contributing time or through any other resource.
  
  
• Support political candidates who strongly identify with your viewpoint.
  
  
• Write an article advocating your cause and submit it to a publication or a similar platform which supports your cause.
  
  
• Make a public commitment to regularly contribute in some way to an organization which support your cause.
