September is always an exciting time where so many things are fresh and new. In September, we all get new classrooms, teachers, friends, clubs, teams and activities.
It’s the perfect time to think about how you are going to spend your time and your energy. What are you going to do different and better this year than you did last year?
I am launching a new initiative on my blog that I’ve been working on since May that takes everything that I learned and experienced last year on my journey as a change-maker and turn it into action.
What I have learned in the last year through being a part of We Day throughout North America and on the We Create Change Tour across Canada is that young people are excited about making a difference in their communities and in the world. I can tell you that they are committed, motivated and inspired because they are seeing results.
What do they have in common? They have found their spark, their team, their support. They have also identified their skills, talents and gifts. When they added their spark to their gift, they were able to put them into action to make a difference.
I am dedicating my year of action this year to empowering others to make a difference. I want to help others find their spark and their gifts and put them together so that they can be the change.
I’m going to share what I have learned along the way in my own journey as a change-maker. I’m going to introduce you to people who have inspired me as they have found their spark and ignited it into action. I believe that we can all gain so much from learning about what other change-makers are doing.
I’m going to help you to discover your spark – that thing that makes you want to take action and make a difference. Once you have identified your spark, you’re going to be motivated to do something and I’m going to help you to do that too.
Are you ready? Let’s do this.
Step One: Take #MyYearOfAction Pledge.
You don’t have to decide yet what you’re going to do, but you are deciding that you are going to DO SOMETHING.
Download the pledge below. Print it. Sign it. Date it. Colour it. Make it all your own.
Take a picture of yourself with your pledge and email it to me at Hannah@callmehannah.ca.
I’m going to build a gallery here on my blog of all of your pledges and pictures so that we can be inspired by each other.
Stay tuned. This is only the first step on our journey and our Year of Action.
