We are living in a world where everything is changing every second. There are people who are making things change by harvesting their knowledge in a certain field or even coming up with something creative which is unusually different for the people and this is what they call making a difference. We live a static life where everything is almost the same every day and we seem uninterested in the things we do. Main reason behind this is being similar everyday. And the one major hindrance that people are unable to harvest their knowledge is due to the system of society or what we can call this is a trend which is spreading to every youth and adults out there, where they call themself a “nobody” without even trying. This is where the idea of making a difference comes in, assuming yourself as somebody who can give something that the world always longs for.
Making a difference basically means doing something different than that of others or breaking a stereotype. We all in one way or another want to make a difference. And making a difference is not that easy. It requires a lot of time, going beyond what you are and what the world is, and will definitely take everything you hold in your power. The major and first thing to do if you want to make a difference is to start where you are currently and reflect on your actions, track your outcomes, and be determined on the next steps you are going to take in order to build a different self than yesterday. The next thing which is important in order to make a difference is to never stop asking questions whether it requires questioning yourself or others. Question yourself if you are seeing no changes in your life and seek answers to what is stopping you from being a different person? Making a difference while listening and reading seems way easier but implementing it to our livelihood is tough and hard, so believe in yourself and do what you feel is right because results are based on our level of preparation, not on our level of expectations.
