We change people, but oftentimes we get so focused on the negative people and their influence on us, we forget how powerful we are as positive people to influence others.

There is a compelling case showing us that we actually change people all the time. And when we fully realize this, we start to see how powerful we are to get others unstuck, see that their behavior matters, and start taking steps to create happiness and success in their lives.

I think there is little harm in venting here and there about things, as we are all human, and it is good to express emotions.

Social comparison that leads to unhappiness is the downside of social media.

Too often we forget how powerful we are as individuals to shape how other people see the world. Each one of us constantly broadcasts to other people - whether consciously or unconsciously - verbally or non-verbally - and those messages influence their brain.

Too quickly, venting can turn into dumping garbage on the people around us.

Change your story, change your power.
