Change-Makers vs Activists

An activist is a person who is happy being unhappy about some broken thing in the world.
The unhappiness that it takes to actually make a change (in almost anything) is often way greater than the unhappiness of just living with it.

Whereas a change-maker is a person who has a clear vision of the post-change happiness, and is willing to push through the initial activation unhappiness (activation energy + that initial unhappiness) to get there.

Activists are known for their unhappiness, change-makers are known for their intelligence and grit.

Should you be an activist or a change-maker? Well, depends how strongly you feel about these real world problems. If you’re an elite, you owe it to the world to become a change-maker.
