Influence-Affirming Infographics

The Purpose of Life Revolves Around the People We Impact

— August 9, 2013 — Lifestyle
‘How Big is Life,’ created by Anna Vital for Funders and Founders, takes a look at the purpose of life and how much influence a single person can have on the world around them.

As the infographic states, “life is a big show” whereupon we are constantly meeting new people, many of which we consider to be friends with, or at least friendly enough to hang out with at a social setting. Dunbar’s Number dictates that most people have meaningful relationships with at least 150 people, often meeting them through new job ventures, school or startup projects.

Thus, whenever we risk starting something new and entrepreneurial, we can realistically reach a vast number of people, fulfilling one purpose of life.
Trend Themes
1. Individual Impact Potential - The rise of infographics highlighting the power of individuals encourages more people to take risks in entrepreneurship and innovate with the intention of creating a positive impact.
2. Visual Storytelling - The popularity of infographics as a medium for storytelling opens new opportunities for designers and businesses to communicate complex ideas and data in a visually appealing and shareable way.
3. Social Connection Metrics - The tracking of relationship metrics like Dunbar's Number creates opportunities for startups to develop new social networking tools and services that help users enhance their social connections and communicate more effectively.
Industry Implications
1. Graphic Design - The growing demand for infographics as a storytelling tool creates opportunities for graphic designers to specialize in this area and build a visually compelling portfolio.
2. Social Media Management - The emphasis on social connection metrics creates opportunities for social media management businesses to offer tools that help clients engage with their followers more effectively and build stronger relationships.
3. Entrepreneurship - The focus on individual impact potential encourages entrepreneurs to leverage their networks and create businesses with the intention of making a positive impact on society.
