The people including your family need your unique contributions, who know you could be the change mantra.
Do not forget people are in need they need you to solve their problems. For me I found it pleasant helping people, small and medium businesses to succeed in their fields and industries. These are my value. And I also derived pleasure in helping people creating wealth for their future. The next issue is what do you really like? I have been writing, reading and coaching people to become successful and great in their fields. This is a habit I cannot do without. I enjoy coaching people, writing books, reading books and have got my hands on related subject matters like personal development, self help and improvement, leadership, success, internet, entrepreneurship and wealth creation.
