HABIT #17: GIVE BACK

In our fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in the pursuit of material things, constantly comparing ourselves to others and wanting what they have. This mindset often leads to dissatisfaction and a feeling of inadequacy. However, there is a simple yet powerful antidote to this negative cycle: giving back.

I used to be a "Keeping Up with the Joneses" person, always looking for the next thing to make me feel better about myself. I would envy what my friends had and sometimes resent what I didn't have. It was a toxic mindset that left me feeling empty and unfulfilled.

Then, I discovered the joy of helping others. Through volunteering and seeing how some people live without the basic comforts of home, my perspective shifted. The more I gave back, the more content and happy I felt with what I had.

Giving back doesn't have to be complicated or time-consuming. There are many online resources that can help you find a cause that is important to you and list numerous volunteer opportunities in your area. Whether it's donating your time, money, or skills, every act of kindness makes a difference.

Incorporating the habit of giving back into your life not only benefits others but also has a positive impact on your own well-being. It helps you develop a sense of gratitude for what you have and provides a sense of purpose and fulfillment that material possessions can never match.

So, why not start today? Find a cause that speaks to your heart and make a commitment to give back regularly. You'll be amazed at how much joy and fulfillment it brings to your life.
