Tweet Inspiration
I recently read Jon Ronson's terrifying new book "So You've Been Publicly Shamed," which details real-life occurrences of people having their lives ruined through shaming on social media.
Around the same time, I read a blog post by teacher Stony Evans who asked successful people to tweet his students some words of inspiration.
I decided to do the same. I wanted to show the students how, despite the massive amount of negativity that exists throughout social media platforms, there's also a lot of positivity as well.
So, to do this, I posed a simple question to as many successful people that I could think of:
The number of responses is growing every day, and I don't quite know when it will stop, but I've had a lot of fun discussing inspiration with artists, authors, politicians and newsmakers. You can click on the images to enlarge.
