This blog post from Seth Godin<\/a> says something profound to me about impact.<\/p>\n

It’s just the sort of inspiration I want to share with anyone thinking of hosting a Local Impact Cafe<\/a> to help celebrate the World Caf\u00e9’s 20th Anniversary<\/a> because it shows that impact begins at home, with how we see each other, and how we see ourselves:<\/p>\n

The mirror we hold up to the person next to us is one of the most important pictures she will ever see.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Seth goes on to say:<\/p>\n

“If we can help just one person refuse to accept false limits, we’ve made a contribution. If we can give people the education, the tools and the access they need to reach their goals, we’ve made a difference. And if we can help erase the systemic stories, traditions and policies that push entire groups of people to insist on less, we’ve changed the world.”<\/p>\n

Thanks so much to Greg Guiliano<\/a> for posting this link on our World Caf\u00e9 group on LinkedIn<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
