As Beyonce reminds us so well, if we like it, then we should put a ring on it. We’ll assume she’s talking about social change. Because lasting change takes time, it requires a serious commitment, which always begins with a conversation. So, tonight at dinner, have a conversation with your friends, family or neighbors about changing something, and then go for it. Whether you adopt a cat, a stream, a stretch of highway or a piece of legislation, making that long-term commitment will make sure you’re in it for the long haul. In fact, successful revolutions demand nothing less.
