I am a firm believer that most often we get out of life what we put into it. Although there are exceptions to this general rule as there is to all rules, it is a fairly sound rule.
I also believe that the more I help others the more I help myself. Whenever someone is primarily concerned with themselves they find that their life is both lonely and difficult. You cannot develop as a person by dwelling only upon yourself. I think it should go something like this: 80% on other people and 20% on yourself. Of this, at least 15% should be looking at areas where one can improve themselves.
Of the 80% directed toward others, I believe this should be directed toward at least two to five people. Not more than that unless you are an extraordinary person. It will just be too much for you to handle.
Often people wonder exactly what I can do as a person to help others out?
All of us have gifts, even the most disabled people have some form of gift. You can start by using your gift and not always for money. Whatever your gift is, it will benefit others. Consider how much time you can spend on giving that gift away as well as making money with it.
