Everybody Needs Help Doing Something

One of the best lessons I’ve learned is that nobody is perfect. Everyone has different aspects of life they have mastered but everyone has aspects of life they haven’t. People could have poor diets, bad workout routines, not get enough sleep, have relationship issues and the list goes on and on. No matter what, everybody needs help doing something.

Your objective is twofold. (1) To become as well rounded as possible. To develop an understanding of as many subcategories as possible (sub categories being something from the list above) so at any time you can help people in different areas. And (2) to seek opportunities to help people with their issues. Whether it’s giving personalized relationship suggestions to your ideal mentor or telling a colleague an approach to a problem they haven’t thought about.

Your goal in adding value is to become well-versed in learning new skills and applying them to your daily life. Then, when the opportunity arises, giving helpful advice to others in applying the lessons you’ve learned. I guarantee you will find yourself a valuable member of society or at your job if you follow those two objectives.
