For me, the most rewarding part is to help people. I love getting a random email saying “thanks” for a few sentences I jotted down that saved someone else time or money or made their life better somehow.
My most valuable example actually came from a tiny web app I created. I got a email telling me that someone had lost 212 lbs and my app was part of their success. I was sure the number was a typo so I responded and confirmed. When I reached out 6 years later they said:
“I weigh 163.8 this morning down from a high of 387. It has changed my life and the weight has stayed off (but I'm never off the program).”
I think your words, no matter how simple, would be powerful to others.
