Blight can’t be erased overnight.

But decline can be halted in an instant.

The moment you begin to maintain, you are fending off the forces of chaos and disorder. The moment you start getting incrementally better, you shift a trajectory. And trajectories dictate where you end up.

It may start with pulling weeds and picking up trash. It may lead to planting flowers and applying paint. It’s hard to say exactly where the process takes your town, but it is guaranteed to be somewhere better.

A community cannot improve itself and not experience a boost in self-esteem.

When people see that progress is possible, something changes. When they become proud of their surroundings, they stop distancing themselves from their town and start identifying with it.

You don’t need a master plan. You don’t need a grant. You don’t need permission.

You need a broom and enough people who refuse to accept decline.

Start there.
