Why Bother? Because You Never Know What You Can Do, Until You Try

What if it was you?
 

What if YOU are the person who is needed to help change the world?
 

Yet, you’re scared to do so. You’re facing tremendous obstacles. You have no resources to get started. And most of all, even when others believe in you, sometimes it’s hard for you to believe in yourself.
 

So, why even bother?
 

Because you are needed. Now more than ever, your “trying” is needed. You must have the courage to take that step and try. I mean just think about Martin Luther King Jr., Gandhi, Steve Jobs, Nelson Mandela, Rosa Parks, Mother Teresa, Erin Brockovich, Helen Keller, Harriet Tubman… What do all of these people have in common?
 

They each decided to try… to believe.Yes, the odds were against them. Yes, they may have seemed crazy to go up against the tide.
 

But they each decided to take that step.
 

They each decided to become a part of something bigger than themselves by committing their lives, their beliefs, and their gifts to help change the world.
 

And by not backing down against the tide, they generated an enormous ripple effect into the world that has spread throughout generations and history. In fact, their impact was so great that now you and I can look to them for inspiration as to why we should even bother when it comes pursuing our goals and dreams.
 

Realize that just like these individuals and many others, you too are needed. Your gifts are needed. Your dreams are needed. Your commitment is needed. Your “trying” is needed.
 

YOU are needed to help change the world for the better.
 

Remember, all it takes is you.
