He found Africa is extremely lack of water, he set up his mind to dig a well there. Finally he earned enough money and achieved it.
What these children did, seemed not so great, but they just tried what they can do to contribute to the society.
How can ordinary people make contribution to society?
1. Make it a better idea.
If you have a good idea on some subject you concerned, it's better to discuss with people who also concerned it.
After sharing each others' opinions and thoughts, I believe you can find the best idea you need, then we go to the next step.
2. Take the first step.
As the quote says, actions speak louder than words.
If you just keep thinking, thinking…Your life won't change a little, only if you can take actions. Just a little action, keep doing, then you can find your action has caused some difference.
3. Address the negative problems.
For an innovation development, it might encount many obstacles. At that time, the process would be tough, we could tried to find better ways to solve problems.
4. Asking for help.
Asking for help, from the aspects of technology, financial, experts, citizenship. If you try to solve a problem, it's better to find the appropriate person or groups to work with you, the team would have more power.
