The way that I read this question is not as "Are you doing enough?" - rather, I see the question as "What, specifically, can I be doing now to make a difference?". I personally have always felt that those who understand the meaning of the Law of One *could* significantly help the world as we go through the changes we are going through, if they/we apply ourselves properly.
I believe many feel powerless here to do anything significant, so they focus on what they best feel could help, which would be more associated with inner work, which is appropriate. At the end of the day though, tangible actions are what change the world far more greatly.
If I may, let me suggest some other things people can work on..
1. Balance out your personal shortcomings and those areas that make you uncomfortable. Speaking for myself as an example, I am a major introvert. I've learned over time to become quite comfortable and have fun around others. Being able to do that will help my real talents shine through. Everybody has shortcomings, but there's no reason you must hold onto them and limit yourself and your potential future impact.
2. Our systems within society are a complete mess. Find the area that makes you interested and excited - study it, learn what they do today, then figure out the *right* way to do it if you had the ability to do it right. There will come a time when that knowledge you accumulate can be used for the betterment of the world. People with knowledge are far more valuable than those who don't know.
3. When you see something that you are interested in that's working for the betterment of the world, take action. The internet is a vast sea of inaction and disinformation, generally speaking.
4. This is the biggest one I've found for myself in my travels - develop discernment with regards to who you can trust, and make an effort to work with those people. A group working together with a number of people of high integrity is far, far more powerful than working by yourself.
