Where Gifts Meet Needs
Before you begin
Have paper ready if you like, though holding the answers in mind is enough.
The practice, step by step — read it all first if you like
Gifts
Name three things you are reliably good at — including unglamorous ones like listening or organising.
Needs
Name three needs in the world that genuinely move you when you meet them.
The meeting
Hold the two lists side by side. Where might one gift meet one need, even modestly?
One step
Choose the smallest experiment toward that meeting: one email, one hour, one conversation.
Accessibility
Paper optional; all steps work as silent reflection.
How long do you have?
Or read through it quietly above, at your own pace.
