Why am I taking the Leadership for Change Class?

I am taking this class because I am at the point in my life where I need solid direction. I am ready to put my skills and knowledge to work. I "understand" the concept of applying my skills, but how? I hope to retrieve those answers from this class. Over the past year, I was one of those people that complained about finances and blah blah blah. I then realized that I am not the only one suffering and that there are more people worse off than me. I changed my mindset and decided to volunteer at the Greater Chicago Food Depository. I want to be able to volunteer more and donate my time.
