Small is Big

I met today with the leader of an amazing 12 step program for teenagers struggling with various types of addictions.

What works in his world? Not the big splash event, but the slow steady consistency of being there, building trust and then offering real solutions.

We need more of the small, more rabbits and less monoliths, less elephants if we want to affect change in our world

Big is not better -- small but real, in the long run, will outlast the splash. The smaller the more intimate, the more trustworth and lasting.
