I have much to offer many people, even if it is nothing more than a friendly smile to a stranger. It can anonymous (the most challenging way for MY ego) or you can volunteer. It doesn't much matter. Pick something that you would not normally do to create the challenge.

I don't know if this helps, but I really enjoy when I see or hear of someone stretching and/or reaching for something new. Bravo to you!

All the best!
Thanks.

I like being a positive influence as well (even though many might see me as a bit cynical or "negative"). That's why I love the Internet.

However, I feel I can only be so good of an influence in my current state. To truly be inspiring to others I must actually be inspiring to myself.
