Picture a common pot that several people are filling. Your contribution is the piece you put in — money, work, an idea, a chapter — and once it is in, it stops being just yours and becomes part of something bigger that no single person made alone.

可以想成:一個大家一起裝的共同的鍋,你放進去的那一份就是 contribution。放進去的可以是錢、力氣、想法、一篇文章;一旦放進去,它就不再只是你的東西,而變成一個沒有人能單獨完成的成果的一部分。整個字的重點都在「我那一份」和「共同的成果」這兩件事的關係上。
