KEY POINTS

The words of Edward Everett Hale, “I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And I will not let what I cannot do interfere with what I can do. And by the grace of God, I will,” offer a powerful message about making a difference in the world. Hosts Patricia Wu, Jessica Reyes, and guest chef and author Jill Sullivan provide insights.

Embrace Your Power

Hale reminds us that even a single person has the capacity to make a positive impact. We don’t need to solve every problem to contribute meaningfully.

Focus on What You Can Do

Instead of feeling overwhelmed by what seems impossible, identify areas where you can make a difference, no matter how small.

Persistence is Key

Hale acknowledges the importance of perseverance. Don’t let the challenges or limitations you face deter you from taking action, even if progress feels slow.
