The ripple effect of positivity

The ripple effect of positivity is not a new concept, the specific phrasing is a new phrase. The idea of a "ripple effect" has been widely discussed in various fields such as psychology, sociology, and even physics (where it refers to the spreading out of waves from a central point).

In the context of positivity, the ripple effect refers to how small acts of kindness, optimism, or gratitude can spread and inspire others. It's closely tied to the idea of "paying it forward" or the butterfly effect, which suggests that even small actions can have far-reaching consequences.

The phrase "ripple effect of positivity" draws upon common ideas in the domains of emotional and social contagion, where positive emotions or behaviors can spread similarly to how a ripple spreads in water

After reading the section "The Ripple Effect of Positivity, in the book, Endless Thanks," the team was inspired to show others how to implement the power of gratitude in their daily lives.

Cut the ripple

If you cut the ripple, you're letting someone know that you're onboard with what they are saying. They tingle your brainwaves, you ride their waves. Your frequencies are alligned, and cut at the same time.

Imagine this, you're sat with a friend in the rain, having a couple of cans. Your friend starts talking about how much he loves the feeling of warm sand on the bottom of his feet. If you know the feeling, you let him know "I cut the ripple".

Yeah man, I cut the ripple, I'm totally with you on that one.
