Little: Leading Interesting, Tasteful, Thoughtful Life Everyday.

I work in the rural community of Nigeria (with Prikkle Academy) empowering young people to look into their skills, knowledge, talents and community assets to transform their own life experiences.

Last year, I had a meeting that I was already running so late for, I had underestimated the minutes it would take me to walk to the meeting point.

20 minutes away from the house, the straps of my sandal broke, I was 9 minutes closer to the venue. Going back to the house wasn't a good choice.

At that point, all I needed was a bike, taxi or a cobbler to suddenly appear.

No bike, no cars passed for more than 15 minutes and the next cobbler was about 5 minutes away.

Ouch!! It was uncomfortable walking in a broken sandal. I didn't want to walk barefooted, it's unsafe on an untarred, hot and sandy road.

Yet, I had in my hand 20 times the amount of money to take a bike, taxi or give a cobbler to fix my sandal, but that money was 'useless' at that point.

That's why your talents or gifts may look like it doesn't make so much sense to you, it's because you haven't found a place to make it speak, scream or solve a problem.

See, I trekked for the next 5 minutes to the next cobbler, it wasn't anywhere funny. It made me appreciate the power of directing relevant solution to an heartfelt problem.

Sometimes, all a 'wealthy' woman may be looking for can be as little as an 100 Naira or half of $1 mobile recharge card.

Sometimes, all an aspiring CEO is looking for is just someone like me that can walk them through the magic of limitless thinking, launching an awesome dream, tinkering social media or how to craft their thoughts into fine writing.

Sometimes, all we want from a dear friend is just for them to hold us in their arms, saying beautiful nothing.

Another time, we are thirsty to meet someone that will chase us on our toes -- we know what to do, we aren't lazy, we have even made all the plans on paper, village people aren't on our matter, we just won't follow through.

Sometimes, all we want is just someone to help us take action on a service or product that we have heavily paid huge money for.

Sometimes, all an employee needs is a shoulder to rest on, a hand that will pat in some words of encouragement into his ears and heart.

When you have done all the big things, spent all the energy within you, given away all that you can and things still don't work, it's time to quiet down.

Look out for and do that little thing -- a smile, remembering anniversary, a thank-you note, a firm handshake, a tiny recharge card, a simple phone call, and whatever -- that makes life thoughtful, interesting and tasteful.

Little is much.
