Assignment #2A
In JD Russo's TED talk video, most spoke to me is a very important quote he says at the end of the video. Russo says a quote by Robert F Kennedy," Each time a man stands up for an ideal, or acts to improve the lots of others, or strikes out against injustice, he sends forth a tiny ripple, and crossing each other from a million different centers of energy and daring, those ripples build a current that can sweep down the mightiest walls of oppression and and resistance." In my opinion, Russo is trying to say that each time I or someone else stand up to help someone or to be part of a greater cause, then were giving hope to someone that is maybe looking for a person like us in their life. On my journey in the mentorship program, I will always go out of my way to help someone because we all have times in our life we wish we could've had someone to be there for us. It might not be a grand gesture, but anything as little as a 'I have been thinking of you and I hope you are doing good' message can change a person's day.
"The role of a great leader is not to give greatness to human beings, but to help them extract the greatness they already have in them." - J. Buchan
This quote defines what a true psychologist should be! It is your job help every client or patient find their inner self.
