Small things can make a big difference but the question is whether or not we see the change from within or if we experience it personally. Everyone take a voluntary step, a small step which can lead to a massive change for another person, however the problem is that we sometimes do not realise the nature of our actions and therefore we do not realise that a change has been made.
Obviously there is a counter effect as small things can make a big difference seeking the result that is opposite too success, happiness and even affect upon you in person.These small things that many people do is avoid helping older generations pick up a piece of paper or walking stick; in order to avoid this they would simply walk around them and blank it out. Little things such as lending someone a couple penny or donating to charity, people avoid these why? We are not asking for £100 but just a few penny. A simple Smile can make a difference, it can make a big difference. A smile to me is stress free, a sign of happiness and enjoyment, a chance to relax yourself and the main thing is that it cheers you up.
One small thing that has happened this week has made a diffrence, a difference that made everything worse.
I have a family business, we hired a worker who came from China and has been working here for a total of 13 years I will call him Y. He's a good worker but the only problem was that he turn to money as his main priority, selfish and self centred. He does not buy his own food but taked it from our storage, my dad is quite soft hearted so he allowed it. He lives up in the flat where he paid no rent, therefore my mum asked him for rent. the worst part was that when he was working for my auntie, she paid all his bills and even bought him food for breakfast every morning even on days off. She was pretty scared of him, even as a worker he would shout at her, leave hours before closing time. The flat he lives in belongs to us, but because his wife and daughter came over he forbids anyone to go up there except when my dad took over. His daughter attended college for three years doing english, she has not been back as she is 19 and will have to start paying therefore she stay home everyday instead. His wife had to take a test in order to stay in England, but she did not. Instead, Y paid someone to sit the test for her and we all know that is illegal.
Enough said, there is not much I can say about Y, from the details I have given we can tell that he is not loyal or friendly. Just this week, probably on Saturday night or early Sunday he left without notice and without say. He moved his belongings, his daughter and wife out and dissapeared. The only place I know they would go is back to China, but the worst comes to worst is that he has ditched all bills including phone bill and left many banks supplying him with a overdraft. He cleared all his money so that none of the comapnies will be able to recive the credit he owes, if he gets caught he will be jailed and nit just himself as this can be catergorised as fraud.
This small thing of him leaving have left my parents working harder, I will try my best to take on whatever I can but I also have the side of University on my shoulders. It is difficult, I get tired too but I do not want my mum and dad to work too hard. They have worked long enough.
I personally take on a lot of things, during work I would do everything even if I am tired but this avoids my mum doing it and I let her relax more, then I feel much better about myself. I make a effort to go out and meet up with my friends even if I do not feel the mood to do so, This makes them happy, keeps us in contact and friendship link will then grow much stronger. I drive my mum round to town and places she likes just to keep her occupied, even if I do find these places boring. Buying random gifts for friends and family just for no apparent reason. All these little things can make a big difference, we may not notice the change but it has happened, the effort we put into the things that we do can make others more smile. Taking one step further, one small step that makes everyone you know more happy, living each day more freely and more relaxed.
The main thing that I take on is University, I actually do not like it one bit if I am being Honest. But in my days where can you go if you do not have a qualification? The course I take is not the most ideal, I wanted to change and I still do, the reason for me staying is that I want to complete the course and get a decent job. Decent enough to allow my parents to retire, I do not mind taking on stress or work loads. If I put my mind to it I can achieve the target I wish for. However, the strategy I am using is not really working very well. I do not have luck on my side so I have to work much harder.
Exams are the worst, I revise, But is it enough. I get nervous and I get scared, I can be optimistic by mouth and pessimistic by heart. This is to show my friends that I have confidence. So far I have not failed anything, but I have realised that my scores are decreasing. This could be due to my ability to intake information is much slower then others, I don't really know. But Then again I don't even know if I am trying my best by giving my All. I revise more then ususal which is the one step I have taken further, Whether it will make a difference we will have to wait and see.
