Will YOU Change The World?

How Will YOU Change The World?

For many of us, 'changing the world' is a BIG thing. Needing a lot of resources, pots of money, oodles of talent. But does it, really?

Not everyone wants to create huge shifts and tectonic upheavals. You can change the world by feeding a family, nursing a sick patient, educating a child.

Yes, even these small things make the world a different place. A better place. A nicer place.

And you can do it - right now. At least, start.

I invite you to share one such goal - for the next 24 hours.

It's a goal I set after hearing about it from Tim Ferriss, author of the best-selling "Four Hour Work-Week".

The goal is to raise $10,000 to build a library for children - and to raise the funds BY TOMORROW!

If 100 people raise $100 each, we'll have a total of $10,000 - which "Room to Read" will use to build a library.

And all it involves is some work over the next 24 hours. Building the donation page (took me 3 minutes using the simple online tool). Telling a few friends and family members about it. Mailing a list if you have one.
