Focus on the part of the puzzle with your picture on it. And if you aren’t sure what to do, start with what’s in front of you right now: one idea to outline, one small project to tackle,
one person to call or a person to check-up on.
Do what you can with where you are and what you have.
As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourself, the other for helping others. – Maya Angelou
