Become part of the reason something works better.

Considerable satisfaction is available in being part of why something works, even without being the reason it exists. Systems, teams, and communities are held together by people who fixed the thing nobody was assigned to fix, and their contribution is real regardless of how it is recorded.

Look for the thing near you that half works and improve it. You may not get credit, and it will still be true that it works better because you were there.
