Are you essentially asking what the first step to success is? It seems everyone has a different answer. I don't think there's a better way to put it than "to each his own".

Then figure out how you could apply your skills to improve upon/change/disrupt what you care about. If your care is strong enough, you could do it all day regardless of the "monumentality" of it.
