That's rather a bad mindset. You don't need to be a president or Shakespeare or Einstein or Bill Gates, etc to be impactful or achieve something.

Become impactful can be done in smaller scale, starting from family or relative (skip if they're jerks), friends (again, skip if they're jerks), local community, even local animal shelter and wild bees.

Well I'm not joking. Many people, especially orphans may need helps. Wild sheltered animals and wild bees too. They need helps, though from anyone, not especially yours.

On the contrary, you may already made impacts, for example when you buy from local grocers or vendors, you may helps them fulfill their financial needs that day / week.

Always view the small scope, nearby. The world may not need 2nd Einstein to survive, but local entity may need your interference to survive.
