Hello everyone in the freewriters community 馃憢
I'm here with another dose of IMPACT, my posting streak continues. Let's see how we get along.
I'll be adding a picture to this post to show my guys at work. 馃槑
Many people feel you must be in a big position to be able to make impact. Impact does not always come from big positions or from being paid for what you do. Sometimes, impact starts from simply making yourself available to learn and to contribute your portion.
Volunteering is one of the ways people create impact while also growing themselves, sometimes without even knowing.
I鈥檓 currently a student in school, and some time ago a few friends and I decided to make ourselves available to learn sound engineering. We started with absolutely zero knowledge. We didn鈥檛 understand the equipment, the wiring, or even how the whole system worked.
But we showed up anyway, we were determined and consistently availed ourselves.
Over time we started learning gradually, how to set up equipment, how to handle the sound system, the mixer console , and how events are managed from the technical side. The learning process has been very practical and sometimes demanding.
There are days that are honestly stressful. Days when we have to move heavy speakers, set up equipment, and run around making sure everything works properly. And all of this are voluntary work, we doing all this without being paid.
But despite that, it has become one of the best experiences I鈥檓 having in school.
Through volunteering, we have gained knowledge that we would never have learned inside the classroom. We are learning real skills, teamwork, responsibility, and how events are handled professionally.
As graduation is getting closer, I realize something important. I won鈥檛 just be leaving school with a degree, but also with valuable external knowledge and practical experience gained by volunteering and availing myself.
Sometimes the opportunities that shape us the most are not the ones that pay immediately, but the ones that teach us something valuable for the future.
Volunteering may look small at first, but the impact it creates, both for others and for yourself, can be very meaningful.
And in the end, knowledge and experience are things that will always stay with you.
IMPACT WHEREVER YOU FIND YOURSELF 馃憤
