It's best to examine just how much you feel obligated to measuring up to others' expectations just to get ahead in this world. You may secretly feel that you don't measure up to their incomprehensible standards, under extreme pressures, which is probably why this period is bringing such incredible crises into your entire way of life. Being a creature of habit and customary tradition, such times of monumental reform can be truly challenging. Sometimes you have to accept that it's better to learn to let go, detach yourself from even that which seems like the most natural of expressions - especially where being of service to the community is concerned. It's not yet determined how such colossal change and reform is going to be possible, but you'll find that you're better off doing your own thing until things out there come to die away a little. You will find that, once the dust settles - and this could take some time - you'll be better equipped to handle what the community needs from you than you can fathom right now. Quit being so hard on yourself for not being able to do things the old way. That way is dying. For now, find what it is you do exceptionally well - not by comparing yourself to others who provide similar goods or services, but from the feedback you get, focusing on cultivating your best assets to adapt to a standard which is marketable to others, in some 'future' sense.
