“The difference between what we do and what we are capable of doing would suffice to solve most of the world's problems”
— Mahatma Gandhi
Simplified Meaning:
People often have much more potential than they use every day. For instance, if everyone used their talents and abilities to their fullest, many big issues around the world could be fixed. Think about someone who has the skills to help others but chooses not to because they're busy or distracted. If that person, and many others like them, actually did what they could, problems like hunger, poverty, and even climate change could get better. It's like knowing how to cook but always eating out instead—if you cooked, you'd save money and eat healthier. So, by doing what we're truly capable of, each person could make a big difference in the world.
