Little things
Today I found out that an email I forwarded after giving it about 30 seconds of thought was one of the reasons that contributed to a friend applying for a year-long super cool leadership position in AIESEC Southern Cone.
Yet another reminder of the power of tiny actions that ripple out and have surprising effects. I don’t for one second take full, or even majority, credit for her decision. I just know that I’m proud to have played a role, however small.
It makes me think: what can each of us do with just 5-10 minutes a day that can truly make a difference? If we could always change someone’s life with a few minutes of thought and a few minutes of action, what would we choose to do? And how do we make our few minutes count for as much as possible?
In Brief
My name is Arcadiy, and arcadiy.org is my website. Funny how that works.
I write about life, technology, my random side projects and whatever else strikes my fancy. I make no promises about the utility or entertainment of anything here. However, I would love to hear your thoughts on anything I mention.
In my day job I'm a Program Manager on SkyDrive.
You can read (or look at) more by me in my momentstream.

- @jaredpar Ah, if you're using the Windows 8 app, it doesn't have that functionality just yet. The website will, however, let you do it. #
- @jaredpar You should be able to download an entire folder at a time on SkyDrive. Are you having trouble? #
