Does “how” or “what” matter more?

If someone achieves a good outcome through manipulative or unethical means, is the outcome still good?

If that same person makes a great decision based on sound information and principles, but it leads to a bad result, was the effort still “good” in a moral sense?

Start with one

One person. Just help one person with whatever skill you have, whatever problem she has.

This one act doesn’t have to dictate the entire course of your life, business, career, or whatever else you’re worried about.

Nor do you have to plan everything perfectly from the start. No need to create a business plan, figure out all the courses and certifications you need to take, or get an accountant on retainer. At least not right now.

The important thing is to start. Help this one person in front of you.

If it goes well, then you can decide whether to help another in the same way. Or not.

One decision doesn’t have to dictate every other decision that follows.
