Topic: Make a difference in your society. (Read 349 times)

Your comment is very inspiring.  Corruption, insecurity and negative situations have become normal in the society.  All this can be changed only by the leadership of a good leader.  If I get the chance I will definitely take steps to eliminate the negatives because small changes can add up to a big impact.  Basically, I will strengthen laws and policies to stop corruption, ensure people's safety and security, and ensure equal opportunities for people at all levels of society.

You ars right change starts from within, you can't impact what you don't have my pastor woudl always say, his advice would always lean towards self development and developing new character, attitude and character is really everything and that's that's determines how far an individual would go in life, its not always about knowledge and upbringing although it plays an important role in a person's life too, but character is the determination factor in how far a person can go or Impacts in his society.

Every society has a number of scumbags who are always eager to spoil any good plan. But for any good work there is a co-operation from the Creator which permeates all minds. So for every good work everyone should be interested as well as aware. Above all they should be made aware of their rights. I believe that if people can take action to realize their rights and not interfere with the rights of others then it will be possible to get corruption in that society.

Yes, you are right, before anyone will be complaining about our leaders not making any change or difference in our society, we should first of all make a change within our reach or around us, like you said, if you want kind people around us, we should also do the same, we can't be unkind to some people and expect others to be kind to us, we can't plant a orange and expect watermelon to grow, we will harvest what we plant and not what we didn't plant.

So whatever thing we do to others, that is what we get in return, and also we can make a difference in our society by helping and creating Job opportunities for the less privilege, is not everything our leaders must do for us,that is why we have rich and poor in our society.

In the current era, social change should be initiated by changing ourselves otherwise is not possible. If we want to build an ideal society, we have to start with ourselves. We must strive to be the best version of ourselves, uphold our values ​​​​and principles, act with kindness and compassion, respect others well. Let's work on our character, our behavior, our mentality. It's not an easy road, it's a lifelong journey. But if each of us takes responsibility for our own actions and strives to be a better person every day, we can collectively work to create an ideal society. Let us be the change we want to see in the world.

This is very true my dear mate, for someone to make a difference in the society the change must start from him or her because if we decide to wait for the leaders to change the society for good without playing our own part then their efforts will be in vain even when we know very well that they are corrupt leaders but we sincerely need to support them by impacting positively to the society. For instance, whenever any policy is enacted and there is a change in the price of commodity and other utility bills people will see the changes as an opportunity to get rich overnight and even when the government decided to regulate the price actions the individuals in the society fail to adapt to new changes in price instead, they will remain stagnant in the old price just because of the profit they are making and not considering the effect on the masses.

You can only make a difference in the society by impacting and assisting positively to the people around you so as to contribute to their lives, however, societal changes is very necessary, but we should start with our environment and the people around us.

 

Op if you are talking about to make a change for your personal self then I can support you but when you come to the national level. Those politicians are not ready to make you change and you have to k ow that one thing that can make one to stop corruption is good welfare package. In you office if you are well paid then you won't like to collect money from the poor to do things for them but you use the government money to process everything and do the thing for them.

But whereby the job is under pay, then corruption would emanate. And most of these corrupt cases in the society are cased by the leaders. And things are common in the third world countries. According to one political analyst, he said if you want to stop corruption then increase the salary of the civil servants then it would stopped because they are the people process the documents in the political offices.

Agreed. As you mentioned corruption, insecurity as well as violence, uneducated problem and there are many negative issues are in our society. If i can be a leader then I will work to fix these. Would like to ensure everyone a peaceful life by fixing insecurities and violence feom society. As well as uneducated problem also a major problem in our society what need to solve. Corruption is a big problem and it can't be solve within a day. People need to fight against it and if a leader take step then it can be also solve gradually.

As a leader, your first priority is to see how you can put smile on the face of those that have elected you into that position, so making the negative things in your society come to an end should be your first priority unless you’re self-centered and only looking for a way to make yourself happy only.

A lot of leaders know what is happening within them but most of them are blended by power and authority given to them and use that avenue as a means of stealing and enriching themselves more. They become people that hide under the umbrella of negativity and embrace them while showing to the people that they’re fighting against it.

 Every leader can say they’ll fight corruption and negativity in the society but don’t believe too much in them until they get to that position and do as they say, if not, you will regret why you voted them to represent you the first time. It is either they become part of the corrupt system and steal too or they become a fighter protecting the interest of everyone.

It will be better if you share about these negative things what Exist in your socity and you would like to work on. Although i think each and every society have some negative and positive sides. And there are lots of negative things what should be changed. Like rich people don't Respect poor people. Such mentality should be changed. Besides smoking also supposed to be positive but it should be changed. Besides corruption is the biggest thing what need to stop in society. And many more

If anyone has an opportunity to be a leader in society he will do exactly what you want to do but did you know that no matter how you try to fight corruption and make things in a country it will never end and maybe as you are about to end it that the corruption will still be increasing, as a leader in the society you have to remember that there are people that we always call leaders that are knowing as the leader but even when you are appointed as a government or the president of the country you can’t stop them from doing what they are doing, in some countries you can do whatever you want if you have the opportunity to become a leader but in my country, I don’t think you can because there are even people who have the right to talk to you as a leader and you must.

To make things right in a corrupt country is not an easy thing and in the process of fighting corruption you as a leader you can lose your life because fighting corruption can also make you have enemies in the country, the only thing that you can do as a leader is to make people happy by giving them a better security and provide them with good jobs, good food, good health and try your best with what you can do it not a corruption can not end, the reason I’m saying all this is because since I was born the country where I grow up has never been good and the country problem always get worse whenever the new leader is elected as the president of the country.

Yes, first of all, one should start from oneself and then proceed with the positive change of the society through the involvement of others. Most of the time people place their responsibility only on the government or local administration but as a citizen everyone has many responsibilities which are definitely undeniable. Since the collective efforts and awareness of the people living in the society help to ensure a clean and healthy environment, it is really unreasonable to blame the government entirely. In every society when the number of conscious people is more, it is definitely possible to maintain order and can be a model for building an ideal society.

I still believe that everyone has the power to cause grear change in the society, we don't have to follow everyone in doing what they do, there is room to make a difference in your environment, you can't wait for the government to impact little rules that you can keep for yourself like having a healthy environment, little habits can cause great change.

Because people mostly care for their own selves more than others and they don't want to mind other people's businesses as well because it has nothing to do with them. the more people become selfish the more the community and the whole society become corrupt. unlike before, people have a gathering in order to have a meeting on how to improve their community and the result was really good because it made their community lively and safe. thankfully this is what is happening in most of our community here in our country because if they care about the issue inside the community and make arrangements to stop all the bad activities that currently happening inside with the help of authorities.

I totally agree with you on the thought of eliminating corruption.
Indeed corruption has actually been the order of the day, where people now sees corruption in some country as a societal norms, which basically not suppose to be so.
For me I think elimination of corruption should be key in making a difference in your society.

We have different types of leaders in societies, and if you are not in that position you won't know what it takes to be leadership. Do you think it is easy to change people's behavior in society? Not at all, we are talking about humans where everyone has a way of living their lives, a leader has the potential to eliminate the negative people in societies, but it is difficult to make people in the area obey the instructions. However, many leaders did not stay long in their titles for more than a year because they attempted to make some positive changes in the societies, to be different from the previous leaders, but they did not know that to change negative things in society is very difficult. In some societies, individuals will warn their leader if he wants to live peacefully, they should be mindful of their actions in society, which is why many leaders do not bother about changing the negative things in their society.

Corruption is a continuous problem in society that no single leader can fight. For example, in my country, where corruption has grown every day, I do not have to blame my government that they refuse to fight it because corruption did not begin with them and will not end here. If you have the power to stop it, you can, but you will need people to support you.

The topic is just race is too broad to be discussed under this heading. Before you will decide to continue with what you called negative things, you actually need to outline such negative things so that we wouldn't have to peddle down our discussion. Also those things you call negative things could be positive in order environment apart from where you are.

And as generation progresses some values are lost. Maybe some good values have been lost and the people you see concurrently no nothing about such good values. What they know is the things you call negative and they cannot give what they don't have. So whosoever knows nothing about positive value will not give positive value. So in order to make a nice decision, there should be a campaign to teach the new generation some of the lost positive values.

It is said that we should be the change that we want to see, meaning that change starts with every person in the society that wants to see it to move forward. It is easy to blame those that are at the helms of affairs in the country, but the question that everybody needs to sincerely ask themselves is if they find themselves in the same position of leadership or in a sensitive financial position, if they can truly do what is right, especially when they know that they can steal from the public funds without being found out. Most leaders are surrounded with corrupt subordinates, and if they can't beat them to sanitize the system, they will join them and the masses will become poorer because of bad leadership

Its a good thing to make a difference in the society, its not a must that we go by what others are doing, we have to live the right way expected of us together with others in the society, if everyone can perform this as a right and understands the needs for that, then they will realized that there is nothing that can happen to make the society a non conducive place to live in, each everyone of us has a specific role in which we must follow and do in other to encourage for more peaceful coexistence among the people in the society.

I don't think people see it as normal in the real sense of it. They can only feel indifferent because it has been happening a long time and nothing seem to be done about it, thus the syndrome of if you can't beat them then you join them may now come in but not for all people. Some people are very sad about such situation, they complain but nothing seem to be happening in remedy of the situation so they would rather be on their own lane.


The opportunity that people have to make a difference in the society is basically during election through the ballot but unfortunately those corrupt country's leadership don't allow people's vote to count, they keep rigging themselves, friends and cronies inside the political offices and thereby making things worse that whatever complain that comes in of an officer of the government violating rules are not punished because they are part of the government.


Of course yes. It takes a discipline person to clean up mess in governance but if you are not, you won't have the political will to do that because by doing the cleaning of corrupt practices, you will have to step on toes and so you have to have a thick skin and ready to fight back when they come as they must come to fight because corruption fight back. When cleaning up corrupt practices, it means you are also taking illegal resources channels out from those corrupt people that have built themselves with that, so you also be ready to fight back.
