MAKING OURSELVES USEFUL The good we can do—with what we already have.
The good we can do—with what we already have.

We tend to think that doing something useful requires something extra. More money. More time. More influence. More energy. More expertise. Or, heaven forbid, climbing a mountain somewhere.

Some of us have time. Some have experience. Someone knows how to cook. Someone can teach. Someone has a car. Someone knows computers. Someone has an empty room. Someone knows everybody in the barangay. Someone has a little money to spare.

Someone has a good idea.

And sometimes, you’re simply the person who knows the person who knows the person.

That counts too.

Perhaps making ourselves useful isn’t about acquiring something we don’t have. Read more.
