which it registers patients,
administers eye examinations,
teaches eye care, and identifies
people who may require surgery.

• Start with yourself…..
You probably have millions of good ideas
located right there in your mind. You just have to
get hold of them and pull them out.

You need to gather enough information to
form an overall picture of people's interests,
values, struggle similarities, and differences

10. • Think about future…..
We can make some educated guesses.
And those guesses may help us figure out next
step that work for our communities.
• Get beyond hopelessness……
Difficult time being creative and thinking
about new possibilities.
• Be courageous……
