Assignment 2a: Leadership

I think JD Russo's talk on TED is a video everyone needs to watch. He heavily mentions what is wrong with today's people. As the video is titled, awareness is not enough. In today's world, we have all this technology that people didn't have years ago, so we have the ability to spread awareness. The problem is a majority of people are aware, but no cares enough to actually make a change. Years ago we had the excuse that not everyone knew what was going on in the world because they didn't have the access. But now that technology has spread to all the corners of the world, we can not use the same excuse anymore. Sure there are still places in this world, where people are not in good conditions and they have that excuse. There is enough awareness to go around we just need to motivate people to actually get up and make a change. People have the mindset that I'm only one person so my contribution or lack of it won't make a difference. That is what people have misunderstood, every contribution makes a difference no matter how small it is. So if we can motivate people to get up and do something that will help make the world a better place, we will be able to make a change in the world. We can become the change we want to see in the world.
