Contribution

On the card, Contribution means “to make a lasting contribution in the world”. On Even Over’s map of values, it is in the area called Universalism–concern: equal treatment, justice and protection for everyone. That area is on the self-transcendence side of the map.

How it was placed

The word has one clear link to this value and overlaps with others. A lasting contribution to the world points beyond your own circle; it can also carry an achievement motive. The placement is our own and provisional.
