There are many different ways we can make a meaningful contribution to society. I just attended an awesome seminar by Amazing Women International to help me be more effective at getting out Simply Great Lives’ message. It was an impressive gathering of women, each with her own message and deep desire to make a difference in the lives of other people.
Following is a partial list of how some of the participants described who they are and/or what they do. It’s a beautiful sample of the many options we have to make our own significant contribution. Enjoy the “yumminess” and take some time to get clear on what contribution you want to make with your life.

You may have noticed some of these descriptions are more clear than others. Sometimes we can tell pretty clearly what the person does. Other times we’re left wondering what she’s hoping to accomplish. It’s a good reminder that when we can clearly describe our calling, we ourselves are clear on what we are doing which will help us to be more effective in having a positive impact.
