30 Things To Do To Change The World In 30 Seconds

Sometimes the biggest and most charitable things in life doesn't have to be a something you spend years accomplishing. I took up Lorelle's challenge and it's not going to be easy. How can you change the world in 30 seconds? I don't know if I can, but being through the things we've been through, I think I have an idea.

The upside to this is that all you have to do are 30 things that take 30 seconds each to do that you think will change the world. Here is my list:

Edrei's List of 30 Things He Can Do To Change The World In 30 Seconds:

Sincerely smile at a person you hate the most.
Publicly apologise for any mistakes you made no matter how small they are.
Forgive the people who wronged you in the past.
Help the elderly or handicap cross the road.
Tell someone how much they mean to you.
Tell your friends you care for them.
Tell the person you love that you love them even if they don't know.
Say "Bless You" when someone sneezes.
Make a promise you know you can keep.
Listen to people.
Say witty one liners that make perfect sense.
Engage in idle talk with the cashier at the supermarket.
Say Grace out loud before eating.
Give a sincere compliment to a friend.
Give money to a person on a street.
Stop and listen to street musicians.
Refill the coffee pot if you're the last person to drink coffee.
Put recyclable junk in their appropiate places.
Put the toilet seat down after use.
Use a breath mint.
Plant a tree.
Switch off the lights in a room you're not using.
Always let someone else take the seat during rush hour.
Put on a condom.
Ask someone how they are doing.
Talk to God.
Say thank you whenever you recieve anything.
Message a friend you haven't talked to in a long time and ask them out for a drink
Sign up for organ donation.
Laugh.

So…who else is up for the challenge?

Profound Sentiments of the Demented Soul
he decides that if he can do three good deeds for someone and they in turn can â€œpay it forwardâ€ and so forth, positive changes can occur. Lorelle challenged everyone out there to do 30 things that can be done to change the world in 30 seconds. Edrei said it was going to be a difficult task to think of 30 things, I said I was going to be easy. (so not!) Here goes my listâ€¦ Make a baby smile. Tell your brothers/sisters you love them. Tell your bestfriend you adore him/her.
reality really bites
Edrei asked me to take up this challenge and I triedddâ€¦.. but after 20 minutes,I still canâ€™t think of one thing that I can do in 30 seconds to change the world. Honestly I donâ€™t think anything I do/did can change the world. Anyways,Edrei installed a new bunch of smileys the other day

Easy. Fly out and put yourself in orbit around Earth, and then fly at speeds approaching the speed of light opposing the Earth’s direction of rotation. A few hundred spins in 30 seconds should be enough to turn back time and you’ll be able to return to Earth righting the wrongs that happenned a few minutes earlier.

What d’ya mean“movie”?

I’m so impressed with you accepting my challenge! Very impressed. I told you could come up with more, and many are better than mine. I love the condom and listen to street musicians. Excellent.

I challenge everyone to come up with 30 in 30 ways to change the world. Such a little thing to ask that can change so much!

Great list!

Xypre: Technically blowing up the world would leave little room for you to enjoy whatever changes you make.

Lorelle: Shucks well…never one to turn away from a challenge especially on something as good as what you started with.
