Hello,
Many great people have been sources of inspiration to mankind. Have you ever influenced others in a positive way? Have you ever felt or seen your influence take effect on others?
To my dismay, I have not really come across many people who have had an effect from my acquaintance. Though there are a few who like the way I am, being honest and humble but I have hardly seen anyone rubbing shoulders with my thoughts and actions.
I think it is a great feeling to know someone who has turned into a good person because you have changed them. Do you agree?

I don't actually see the effect of influencing others through my words right away. I believe I have influenced others the way they decide and act indirectly or in a little way as possible. Actually, the way you are- being honest and humble can already influence others. It's one way to be credible enough to influence others. Continue doing good.

Hello all,
Thanks for the response from all. Some of them have been humble and some serving food for thought.
However, what I wanted to know is, if there is anyone who has actually seen their own positive behaviour/attitude directly influenced someone's life and changed their behaviour/attudef for good? What a nice feeling that would be...!!

We all ever been influenced. Parents do this to their kids, family to family, neighbours to neighbours, teachers to kids, companies to employeers, so it's an illusion to think you will never be influenced by anyone or nobody will be influenced by you.
Even god, a hero or whatever is influence.

Yes, we do see ourselves get influenced by our family, friends, neighbours and you will certainly be influencing others as well, one among the many influences that a person receives.
The question is not if we have every been influenced. It is, have you felt YOUR influence on OTHERS?

I think i did. I influence my best friend, because i've seen it. I'm a kind of person who always has good califications. Also I always win in videogames. My friend always win too, but to me he would not win. I think that i tought him that, always win, maybe because one day he wants to defeat me.

Honestly sometimes I manage to impose their views over others and that makes me a little proud of the fact that I know listen to me and I know I'm right.
very nice to know that you did so some one to take the right path.
I love to do so that people can change in a positive direction.
I like to change but only within the normal.
Success to you with the imposition of opinion and change.
nice day!

aha,i am sure i am easily influenced by others. when i was a college student, i was so happy with my friends,playing togther,eating togther,and so on.i am really influenced by them, no matter good or bad aspects. and now, i am a post graduate student, i think i begin to influence others now, just like a center, and when i talk,they listen to me, regardless right or wrong. the feeling is really good...
