Have we ever thought “Why We Do What We Do in Life?”

Interestingly enough we do something because we give meaning to something and focus on to it. What happens in our life today because of the decisions in our past. We set our course to make our future like today.

Often times, we all feel we did something in our life and achieved it but still feeling unsatisfied, why is that? Is because we don’t really give meaning to something. That’s what happen by the terms taking things for granted.

We need to contribute more in order to make our life much more meaningful, we have to do something that we love or passionate about, then we see it is more meaningful once we achieve it.

It’s better to give than to receive.

At first when I was a kid I never knew this simple phrase truly meant.

As I exercise this thought and principle, I see that I can not be more than happy in position as giver.
I felt my life has better purpose and meaning when giving hands in terms of monetary. It is also interesting
when I read famous public figure such as Anthony Robbins, Ellen De Generes, Oprah Winfrey that their prosperous life comes from giving back and contribute to community. They are a true living example that giving is the most powerful form of our selfless attitude.

“When I chased after money, I never had enough. When I got my life on purpose and focused on giving of myself and everything that arrived into my life, then I was prosperous.”
Wayne Dyer -American, Psychologist Quotes

If you see when we are seeking money just to meet the daily life is never going to be enough. We always feel lack of money and we are thinking that we have problem. Some of the low time in my life financially I learned to be a cheerful giver. Is a whole different concept and attitude. I also learned this in the oldest manual book of life “The Holy Bible”, that giving is actually God’s nature that needs to be exercise daily.

I want to show you why giving can grow your business and sky rocket if I may say once you do it faithfully.
Let’s say you have an income of U$1000/mo, if you plan to spend all that without giving to the need one. That would be a problem as you only learn how to enjoy the money that is at the moment. But let’s say we give to our chosen charity like U$100 / 10% of the actual income we receive.

That means we are left with new amount of U$900. As you see that our spending power is only U$900 not U$1000. But this means another thing, since you are giving yourself a restrain to enjoy your money instead of U$1000 but U$900 then slowly your mind will think. Now I only have U$900 what should I do to meet my end needs. That’s come the management part of money whether you like it or not.

With your income is not how much money you make, but how much money you actually keep.

Another way to look at it is in terms of “energy”, I know some people can go all religious and all that when  I would speak about energy. But let me explain and gets you some understanding. Our life revolves within a certain energy. Money that you got in your life is actually a manifested process of your energy. It shows in reciprocal that is part of the energy that you spend each day at your work, or your business or even on yourself. The manifested energy you spend is now come in tangible form as notes / money.

The law of energy is very interesting, energy can not be destroyed nor created. So the energy must go somewhere, when you give the energy will fill up other people’s life or charity. It creates another link of energy that goes into one giant circle of energy. What’s interesting energy you invested for other people never get wasted it has to return to the owner if the owner knows how to attract and multiply it. That’s when wisdom is required. To receive means we have to learn how to manage, and it’s a process of life.

“Giving is better than receiving because giving starts the receiving process” Jim Rohn

“I absolutely believe in the power of tithing and giving back. My own experience about all the blessings I’ve had in my life is that the more I give away, the more that comes back. That is the way life works, and that is the way energy works” Ken Blanchard -American, Businessman Quotes

I can tell you a lot of my personal experience how the power of giving has affected my life in such way. I can never say how much I am being grateful learning about this knowledge. I know is not easy to understand why should you give especially when you are financially challenged. The idea is simple when you give is starting a process to build a better you to let you learn the power of management. As I said before is not how much money you make but how much you give.

Let’s start to be a joyful giver as you will see better purpose in your life and your life would have a better meaning than just surviving.
