Be a Giving Person
Be a Giving Person

Well you know throughout life we have various seasons, events, and celebrations to make living as much fun and exciting as possible. I want to challenge you to take the limits off of your life, if you will and become a giving person! Giving increases the productivity in your life and helps you become a better person. Keep reading!

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 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. Step 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. Step 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. Step 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.

Tips & Warnings
  • Call people and just say Hello
  • Buy them a inspirational book or something to build their success in life
  • Invite them somewhere special
  • Encourage them
  • You will get blessed in return
  • Watch out for people, places, organizations that try to abandon your giving.
