Sometimes, it seems, the more work you put into something you love, the more it loses it's appeal. You want it to be perfect, and you realize more and more that it's not. Then, it's frustrating when you see the people who don't put in lots of effort taking advantage of all you do.
I've been there, and I've done that, in school, my chapter, even with my family.
My only suggestion would be to step back and think about why you put in the effort you do. Is it to please yourself? To please others? Maybe it's just to make your chapter a better place for members that will be there long after you are gone. If your new members see you doing something positive, they will follow. I think just setting a good example for one individual to follow is enough to make a difference.
Best of luck, and don't get discouraged. You don't always have to agree with something you love.
