If you have certain skills and resources, if it was given to you, then go out and do something with it, right? If you're wealthy and you've got a lot of money, go out and donate some of it. If you're a leader and you're a born hero and you can deal with challenge, go out and try to navigate through crisis. Makes sense. The more you have, the more you can do, the more responsibility you should do, right? Close, but it's backwards. Ability doesn't lead to responsibility. Responsibility leads to ability. It's the people that take on responsibility for their own lives, for the lives of others, the ones that shoulder communal needs, the ones that commit to their goals way beyond what's possible. Those people who were regular beforehand now because they took on that responsibility tap into their enormous power that's waiting inside them. Now if we want to access this wellspring of power and potential then we have to stop asking can I and start asking should I can I do something is about me my ability my power should I do something is about others it's about responsibility it's about potential when we answer the question with yes I should or yes I have Do we push ourselves to do things beyond which we never thought imaginable?
