      I think that making a positive impact on the world is something that we can all strive for, no matter who we are or what our circumstances may be. Personally, for me, I believe that the best way to make a positive impact is to focus on the things that I can control and to take small actions that can add up to make a big difference. One of the things that I am most passionate about is education and people. I believe that education is the key to unlocking human potential and that everyone should have access to high-quality education, regardless of their background or circumstances. To that end, I have been involved in several education-related initiatives over the years, from volunteering as a Youth Council member to working with two local jobs and trying to balance out what would be the right step for my future. Another thing that has been on my mind for a while is trying to be passionate about my difference in the world. I grew up not being a normal person because when I was recently diagnosed with epilepsy I thought that would crush me and stop me from what I wanted to become. Not only did it impact my appearance but it impacted my family as well. What got me through my rough patch is the positivity I received from others and the positivity I give to others. The community reminded me that it is okay to not be okay because nobody is perfect at the end of the day. Another area where I believe that I can make a positive impact is in the realm of environmental sustainability. Climate change is one of the biggest challenges that we face as a global community, and I believe that it is our responsibility to take action to mitigate its effects. To that end, I have made several lifestyle changes over the years to reduce my carbon footprint, such as reducing my meat consumption, using public transportation whenever possible, and investing in renewable energy sources. Finally, I think that one of the most important ways to make a positive impact on the world is simply to be kind and compassionate to others. We live in a world that can be harsh and unforgiving at times, and I believe that it is our responsibility to try to make it a little bit better for those around us. Whether it's volunteering at a local shelter, donating to a charity, or simply smiling at a stranger on the street, small acts of kindness can have a ripple effect that can spread far beyond their immediate impact. Of course, there are many other ways that we can make a positive impact on the world, and I think that it's important for each of us to find the things that we are most passionate about and pursue them with conviction and dedication. Whether it's through volunteering, donating, or simply being kind to others, we all have the power to make a difference in the world, and I believe that it's our responsibility to do so.
