Conventional wisdom holds that we need more innovative solutions or more money to solve our worlds complex social problems. The surprising truth from the trenches is: we already have numerous proven solutions for our many challenges; what our world needs most are more people prepared to act on their social drives and become truly committed to an issue, for the long haul. Using a catalyzing mix of storytelling and seven pointed questions, Cant Not Do will inspire hearts and minds and remove mental obstacles to unlock peoples potential to become positive change agents in our businesses, our neighborhoods, our world. Readers will: Understand the drive at the heart of a successful change agent. Be inspired to bridge the gap between wanting to do and doing something for a chosen cause, propelling them out of inertia or nascent commitment into prepared action. Clarify their goals about a social issue and how to best make an impact. Gain confidence in their own ability to make a difference--having broken through self-imposed barriers--and start seeing themselves as change agents regardless of economic background, perceived talents, or openness of schedule. Positively impact not only on the world--whether through for-profit or nonprofit means--but also their lives, gaining a greater sense of purpose.
