- Jcultra, on 01/07/2008, -2/+33If people would leave the world a better child rather than focus so much on leaving the child a better world we may have better people making smarter decisions
- diizy, on 01/07/2008, -3/+1721. Stop getting people to Digg your article for cash and create some real content.
- sodade, on 01/07/2008, -2/+13What a ***** list. The #1 ***** thing should be: don't breed (unless you are the rare sort of person who will put in the energy to raise a child right)
- jd33, on 01/07/2008, -1/+10Thank God "Blog" is not on the list.
The more blogs I read, the more I like my cat. - ryan83189, on 01/07/2008, -1/+7If we all hold hands, BUY florescent light bulbs,BUY products that advertise they will give away .00000001% of their profit to some cause, or PLAY a game that sends a thimble full of rice to Africa, then unicorns will fly over all of the impoverished, ***** edible rainbows that cure disease, thus reliving us of guilt in the process.
- stfucupcake, on 01/07/2008, -2/+6another list is not going to inspire anyone to really change this world
- pkonink, on 01/07/2008, -1/+5There is no try - only do.
- jhshukla, on 01/07/2008, -2/+5kthxbye
- inactive, on 01/07/2008, -0/+2Because we're stupid.
- ripple123, on 01/07/2008, -0/+2That was the most pointless waste of my time ever. And I'm a professional paint peeling watcher.

- FaithclubDotNet, on 01/07/2008, -1/+3Imagine all the pizzas
- Kerrigore, on 01/07/2008, -0/+2Actually, it is.
"8 - Get Vocal - Have a cause that you’re passionate about? Get out there and make your voice heard. Hold rallies, protest, write letters, write articles in newspapers, blog about it, or start a forum. Being silent isn’t going to do anything." - Kerrigore, on 01/07/2008, -0/+2How about doing both?
- SmpleJohn, on 01/07/2008, -3/+423. Mirror.
- zankster, on 01/08/2008, -0/+1Great list. After working in software development for six years and two years prior to that as a journalist, I decided to get a masters in elementary education. I am a third of the way done. I was glad to see “become a teacher” on this list.
- dude2k5, on 01/07/2008, -1/+2I do at least half of these =]
im only 18 too, still got the rest of my life to do the rest - phazon88, on 01/08/2008, -0/+1Scratch that list. 1. Wake up to the fact that the NWO is in full effect. 2. Try and get as many people as you can to wake up. 3. Stand up to the rulers of the world.
oh and of course no list is complete without 4. ??? 5. PROFIT!!! - phazon88, on 01/08/2008, -0/+1bury.
- heysuburbia, on 01/07/2008, -0/+11 - Adopt - Adopting someone is one of the greatest things you can do. You’ll change your life and someone else’s. Adopt a baby, a child, or a teen. By being adopted they’ll always know that there is truly kind people in the world and they’ll pay it back to society.
2 - Just Be Nice - This is something EVERYONE can do, you don’t need any money or any talent. Hold the door for someone, smile, or say hello. You will change someone’s whole day, week, month, year, or maybe even life. Then they’ll be nicer to others, which will just continue the cycle and you won’t even realize that YOU changed THOUSANDS of lives.
3 - Donate - Donate blood, food, time, money, or whatever you can. Donate online, help entrepreneurs in developing countries on Kiva, lend to people on Prosper, or just play the simple game on FreeRice.
4 - Be Positive - Bring more positivity into the world. It so simple but so effective.
5 - Listen - Listen to people, let them talk, learn about their lives, sometimes that’s all someone needs.
6 - Start a Business - Become a social entrepreneur with a company that donates a portion of your profits to charity, or employ those “at risk”. Don’t hire those who graduated from the most prestigious universities and had an easy life, hire those that struggled and triumphed through adversity. They’ll work the hardest because they know what it takes.
7 - Create Art - “Paint” the world. Create more music, paintings, writings, photography, or any other art. Art inspires, motivates, and changes lives.
8 - Get Vocal - Have a cause that you’re passionate about? Get out there and make your voice heard. Hold rallies, protest, write letters, write articles in newspapers, blog about it, or start a forum. Being silent isn’t going to do anything.
9 - Be a Great Parent - Teach your children about the world and how they can change it. Teach them that the possibilities of life are limitless.
10 - Pick Up Trash - No one seems to do this. Just pick up trash that you see lying on the ground. Every little bit helps.
11 - Talk - When you’re done listening, talk. Talk about their life, your life, the weather. Talk to strangers sitting next to you on a bench. You never know where it can lead.
12 - Be an Inspiration - Do something that people said you could never do. Take risks and succeed! This will inspire others to do the same and continue the cycle.
13 - Become a Teacher - Become a teacher with the true ambition of teaching children to succeed in school and in life. Teach from books but also teach from life.
14 - Become a Surrogate Father, Mother, Brother, Sister, Whatever - Many children and adults who lost or were abandoned by a family member may desire to fill that void. Many children from broken families need help to break the cycle and statistics. Become a Big Brother or Big Sister, be someone they never had.
15 - Vote - Vote in your local elections and national elections. Choose a candidate that can truly follow through, not the one that promises all these grand plans that never seem to pan out.
16 - Don’t Be Judgmental- Too many people judge others on the way they look. You can’t judge a book by it’s cover. Someone may look completely different than you on the outside but be completely the same on the inside.
17 - Travel the World - Travel around the world and experience new places. Help the economies and people of foreign countries. Embrace their cultures and share your experiences of them with people you know.
18 - Dream & Do: Dream of a better world then go out their and create it. Dreams become reality with enough work and determination.
19 - Focus - Focus on one of these ideas or another one you came up with. Pour all of your energy into one idea until you succeed in changing someone, yourself, or the world. After you that, then focus on another idea.
20 - Do Something With Your Life! - You don’t have to be a celebrity or a millionaire, just be an productive member of society. - Jalh, on 01/08/2008, -0/+124. not necessary yet.
- BoneheadFarker, on 01/07/2008, -1/+2So what you're saying is...God is the problem? Cool...time to start cutting God out of my life.
- floridiot2, on 01/07/2008, -4/+5Blasphemy.
- LokitheComplex, on 01/07/2008, -3/+4Lame list.
Saying "Just Be Nice" is like when Rodney King said "Can we all get along?"
Its a great sentiment but life is more complicate than that.
An answer to "why can't we all get along?" is what we're looking for. - sophiaperennis, on 01/08/2008, -0/+1I'd pick the following: 3. Be Positive, 12. Be An Inspiration, 16. Don’t Be Judgmental.
- willyummy69, on 01/07/2008, -1/+2a few months ago i thought it was brilliant, sending out hordes of people to spread the word about Ron Paul, now i just realize its as annoying as those viagra spams. You've worn out your welcome.
- XxValiantxX, on 01/07/2008, -1/+2I don't wanna change the world. I don't want the world to change me.
- specialK16, on 01/07/2008, -0/+1Dugg and favorite'd. I really liked what I read in this list, and whatever people may want to think, it gives advices on things that everyone can do. Just, try it. I know I will...
(once I get depression that is) - leerayIG88, on 01/07/2008, -2/+3To change the world? I throw trash outside, why? because it kicks ass. I'm doing my part, why don't you?
- inactive, on 01/07/2008, -3/+4dugg for positivity.
- scottholdren, on 01/08/2008, -0/+1#21 - save for retirement
- inactive, on 01/07/2008, -1/+2because people like you refer to it as another list. work on your semantical language and you could affect someone besides showing what a douchenozzle you sound like.
- degoba, on 01/08/2008, -0/+1FreeRice seems like a cool concept. Does anyone here know anything about them? Do they actually donate rice?
- Ramble, on 01/07/2008, -0/+1Way ahead of you.
- Ramble, on 01/07/2008, -0/+1Adoption is a bit extreme. My parents are foster carers, and you have to be careful sometimes because these kids can be quite ***** in the head, and sometimes suffer physical problems (blindness). I'd only recommend someone experienced with childcare dabble with adoption.
- LokitheComplex, on 01/07/2008, -0/+1If we all held hands
we'd all get sick. - zombies187, on 01/09/2008, -0/+1Thank you.
- inactive, on 01/07/2008, -1/+1jerk me forward.
- alexnosferatu, on 01/08/2008, -0/+0Good article
- mark101, on 01/07/2008, -1/+1"You can’t judge a book by it’s cover", bull , the correct phrase is you can't ALWAYS judge a book by it's cover. If someone looks homeless or like a drug addict, guess what?
- ReyX, on 01/08/2008, -0/+0dugg down for trying to be positive on digg? sad.
- anas55, on 01/08/2008, -0/+0thx for the article i rally love it :)

- KYLIEISNEET0, on 01/15/2008, -0/+0impeach bush?
- Kerrigore, on 01/07/2008, -1/+1That's not very nice of you. You need to work on number 2.
