    @wathek woah I think we’re having a misunderstanding. I don’t think it’s “selfish” to want to have more power/control over outcomes???

    One of the things @humbletightband was asking about was why people volunteer. I was responding to that part as much as anything else in the comment.

    Helping people feels good

    Yes it does, especially if you actually do help them. That’s effecting change though. Stepping up gives you more power to actually change the world for the better, at least for the people you help. That’s what I’m getting at.
