I fully agree with that. When talking about being "world-changing", I was mostly referring to being highly influential for a large amount of people. I find optimism in the fact that I can change the life of people around me.

I have nothing to base what I'm about to say on... but it's my guess that if you were either: 1. highly influential (positively) on a small set of peoples lives that you interacted with intimately or were 2. highly influential in general but never intimately engaged with those you influenced you would be happier as the former.
