Looking for small ways to make a change? Here’s some advice from the book “Be the Change! Change the World. Change Yourself.” (Hundreds of Heads Books, www.hundredsofheads.com  $14.95), straight from people who’ve done it:

“It doesn’t take much time or money to sponsor a child. I have a sponsor child in the Philippines.”

“I got in the habit of paying the toll of the person behind me. Every time I would go over a certain bridge, I would pay the person’s toll. It’s fun to look at their reactions in the rearview mirror!”

“If you don’t have time or money to volunteer, there are little things you can do to improve our world. I have one that is a personal pet peeve: If something falls off the shelf at the grocery store, pick it up! Clean up after yourself! It doesn’t take that long, and if you don’t do it, someone else has to.”

“Drive slower! You not only spare your own life, you can also spare the lives of many small creatures that you wouldn’t otherwise have time to see and avoid.”

Hundreds of Heads Books’ survival guides offer the wisdom of the masses by assembling the experiences and advice of hundreds of people who have gone through life’s biggest challenges and have insight to share.
