This one also comes under the category of 'Think of others':
3. Volunteer to help fix the potholes in your street or neighbourhood.
It is amazing how much we all (myself included) complain about the number of potholes there are, but when we honestly consider how fortunate we are or how able we are to change this, we should rather stop complaining and start making a change! If you are not able/allowed to physically help to fix potholes, donate money to help it get done. You could even club together as a neighbourhood and raise money for particularly bad sections of road in your town. It doesn't (and shouldn't) stop there though! Remember countries and communities filled with less fortunate people, and maybe even fundraise or volunteer to help fix up their potholes instead.
Blessings!

"If you travel around America you see different sections of highways donated by this or that person, and that's a slow beginning of what may end up being a situation common in the Third World: some sections of highways in wealthy areas are beautifully maintained and other parts are just dirt-strewn potholes." {Robert D. Kaplan}

Having completed my 365 day challenge to post a tip, organisation, cause, issue or inspiration every day for 1 whole year (2012-2013) to help each of us to figure out how we can make a difference to the world we live in, I decided to continue posting! I am now volunteering in Los Angeles and working with victims of human trafficking. Stay tuned for more on that and I hope you will be inspired to start where you are and use what you have to bring on world change! Blessings! Ronell x
