This is a question many people ask themselves. I think the real question is, if you're not helping the cause, are you standing in the way of progress? I believe that if you are not with the cause then you are in the way. We tell ourselves all the time that if we don't do something, some one else will pick up the slack, but if a lot of people have that mindset then nothing will get done, and they will be in the way and creating a problem.
In the book Sold, while Lakshmi is staying at the "Happiness House", she spent all of her time on her problems. I do understand that they were very big problems that do deserve attention, but she wasn't helping herself or anyone else by not doing anything. She spent all of her time doing math instead of acting towards escaping. In the end though, I must give her credit, she got the American men and the police involved, which later helped everyone.
