Could You Donate For A Cause And Profit?
Donate for a cause - something that people don't do enough of. In fact, this was something I never thought of doing!
More surprisingly, if people told me that it would actually improve my life, I would tell them that they were being silly!
But then I started donating... I found that not only was I feeling good about helping other people by giving money or time, but I also felt like I was fighting for causes I believed in.
Donate for a Cause With Your Time and Money!
What do you believe in? What would make you want to give your time or money to help it?
If you're feeling depressed and broke, I recommend reminding yourself what you're fighting for! What is a problem in the world that you genuinely want to solve? How about helping people in your situation and worse?
In any case, when you find something you genuinely want to fight for, you can donate time or money (or both!)
It doesn't have to be a random charity you see on T.V.. You can simply buy your friends a round of beers or coffee!
It can be as simple as helping your neighbor with his or her garage sale (watch Bruce Almighty and see how Jim Carrey helps people near the end of the movie!)
What will start happening is magical! You'll start appreciating yourself more and more because you are committing to things you genuinely believe in.
Find Some Charities to Donate to!
In my case, I believe in helping people who help themselves. Among the charities I donate to are Kiva and Zidisha.
Kiva is a charity that gives loans to entrepreneurs in underdeveloped countries. I admire people who, in spite of their situation, take chances and work hard to improve their life situations.
This is also why I donate to Zidisha which is a charity that touched me because it also helps people who help themselves. Zidisha helps refugees through food and medical aid and at the same time helps the local poor as well.
Working hard on my business ventures makes me feel good because that way I can support charities to donate to.
Donate for a Cause You are Concerned About!
So if you want to feel better about yourself and your life, find and donate for a cause you are genuinely concerned about!
Again, it doesn't have to be something you saw on T.V. It can be something as small as taking the time to make a cup of coffee for your loved one, or as grand as helping your neighbors fix their sink.
It has to be something that you really are passionate about. Do yourself a favor and get involved!
Donating is one of the best ways to do that. And again, higher powers do watch you as you donate, and will return the favor.
We reap what we sow, and as long as the donating is genuine then you will benefit as those you want benefit too.
