You owe it to yourself to simply do the best that you can – the trick is, though, the best you can...at what?
For a good answer, you really have to have worked at a deep and personal understanding of two things — what the world is in need of and what you have to bring to that need.
By the way, for what it's worth, I think it’s safe to assume that what you have is God-given (one way or another), so the real question probably becomes something closer to, have you discovered what that is yet?
For some, such things are revealed in a flash; a devastating jolt from reality. For others, it is a long (sometimes painfully) slow arc of discovery. Whichever version of the journey is yours, it does no good to wish you had the other one. Paying attention to the revelation, in whatever form it takes, is your task. Your calling is to give that (whatever has been revealed to you as yours to give) to the world; not necessarily in some grandiose way, but in the smallest, simplest, most pure way you can find.
The size of it doesn’t matter; the giving does.
One of the revelations I am still discovering about my calling, is to share my sense of self, especially at times when I feel the urge to keep it hidden…with silence.
Immerse yourself in the part of truth you can join and contribute to — so that truth can set you free….
You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals. To that end each of us must work for his own improvement, and at the same time share a general responsibility for all humanity, our particular duty being to aid those to whom we think we can be most useful.
