The Ripple Effect of One Decision

We often think of growth as this big, dramatic process.
New year, new you. Big leaps. Major overhauls.
But the truth?
It’s often one small decision that shifts everything.
Maybe it’s the moment someone decides to speak up in a meeting.
Or the choice to take a lunch break outside instead of at their desk. Maybe it’s signing up for a workshop (even though they “don’t have time”).
It doesn’t seem like much at first. But that one decision? It ripples.
The person who spoke up feels heard - and starts speaking up more.
The person who stepped outside realises how much better they think when they’re grounded.
The one who joined the workshop goes home with clarity and calm - and it shifts how they lead, listen, and live.
This is the power of aligned decisions. They start with the individual but impact the team, the workplace, and even the people they go home to.
So the next time something inside you says, “This feels right”, trust that voice. It might just be the first ripple in a whole new wave.
