This might be someone who has made a difference in your life personally or in your community or in the world as a whole. Spend time on this list. It should have at least 10 people. You cannot make mistakes. After you write the list walk away and think about it. Later, write choose one person on that list that resonates with you, that feels like the best choice TO YOU. Then write that person on the top of the back of the same paper and then write all the reason that this person is important. Don't write whole sentences just a list or phrases to help you get out all your ideas. Don't over think about it. Just bet the ideas out on the list. Stop when you have 20 ideas. Again, you cannot make mistakes.Just pay attention to your heart.
