We wonder if our feeble effort has any value. None of us are an island. We all have parents, siblings, children and friends in whose life we make a huge impression just by living. We are born into a family, community and nation—and that already has an impact. We affect many people.

The question is not “Can you make a difference?” You already make a difference. It is just a matter of what kind of difference you want to make. Will we act to make this world a better place, or will we allow our erroneous thinking drive us to complacency and self-defeat? Think about that and how you can make a positive difference.
