I think the first step is clarifying where you want to help and how you can utilize your skills to help move an organization "using business methods to fulfill a social mission" forward. It sounds like right now, you want to get two mentors, start volunteering and discover what type of work/organization is a good fit for you. After you are clear about that, then I think you can take the next steps to connect with the right people and target your efforts. First, get clear, setup the structures to help you succeed, then take more action.

So I am attempting to follow your blog very closely and then write a review on it in the next couple of weeks.
