Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

1. 

   Volunteer
   There’s nothing like volunteering your time to people, places, and organizations. People always appreciate help when they can count on others and have support. Volunteering can be anything from: helping someone, reading a book to a child, supporting an organization, church, or program.

2. 

   Take time for others and don’t be all about yourself. Take time to greet someone, listen to someone talk about what’s on their mind. You can even take a friend out to a restaurant, or take them shopping. Remember, its not about you!

3. 

   Reward people for their achievements and their success, try to talk in terms of the other person and you will see the favor returned unto you. Have a joyful heart about what you are doing, because whatever you sow you shall reap!

4. 

   When you become a giving person to the appropriate people and situations, people will feel a warmth and a sense of care from you. In fact, people enjoy it when others are involved or are supporting them and helping them succeed.
