The Domino Effect: Creating a chain reaction of good habits

IT has been proven that chain reactions can create momentous movement with tremendous outcome. Scientifically, this is the very thing that caused the ultimatum climax of World War 2.
What is the meaning of chain reactions? Apart from scientific explanation, from a business point of view it would be similar to multi-level marketing. For example, one person looks for two people to join his/her business, and then each of the two people looks for another two people to join the business. So, by now there are seven people in the business. It does not seem many but imagine if this momentum continues on, it can easily reach hundreds of people.
Chain reactions can either be bad or good. The explosion of a nuclear weapon, caused by chain reactions, is no laughing matter.
But other than scientific and business understanding, can chain reactions exist within our daily everyday life?
Take the smallest community environment for example, such as a family environment. If parents mistreat their children, would it stop there? Would the children become loving parents themselves in the future? If the bad momentum continues, a clan of unhappy people will exist.
As they say, the cycle continues on. Unless it stops or dies out. So, what will stop bad chain reactions from building up to continue and expand? And how to make good chain reactions to keep moving on.
Love and forgiveness are the two words that never tire to slip into our very being. These two values are the core of most religions, especially for the followers of Jesus.
Love and forgiveness are the strengths that stop bad chain reactions from building up in our daily life, and also the strengths that promote good chain reactions to pick up and carry on.
