3 Ways to Be More Generous

There are only a few people in the world that would have a problem with the idea of being generous. It’s usually those people that are highly self-motivated and don’t see the value of being generous. They believe that what they earn is theirs and shouldn’t be carelessly given away to others–and they’re right about that.

 

Giving to others is a difficult balancing act because it requires you to think carefully about who you give to and how much you give. After all, you don’t want to give away your life savings to a pointless cause and you want to ensure that your generosity isn’t being wasted. So to help you out, we’ve put together some tips on how you become a more generous person without overdoing it and wasting your time and effort.

 

 

1. Understand that generosity isn’t a competition

 

A lot of people fail to understand that generosity isn’t a competition. It’s not about who can give the most and people don’t put a value on how much you give. It’s all about the thought behind the act of giving. It’s about the happiness that you experience knowing that you’re helping someone in need, and it’s the sense of self-worth and purpose that you receive from being a part of something bigger. It’s not a competitive endeavour, it’s a cooperative one where everyone’s donations and contributions go towards a larger goal.

 

2. Learn about charities and what they do

 

You’ve probably heard about many charities in the past, but there are so many that it’s difficult to keep up with what they do, their message and also their history. Take a look at information pages such as https://www.tprf.org/about-tprf/about-prem-rawat/ to learn more about specific charities. With this in mind, you can have a much better understanding of what charities do, how they approach their problems and the solutions they’ve created to deal with issues in the world. Charities don’t need to have a goal of changing the world either. They can be focused on improving their local community and that’s perfectly acceptable as well.

 

Once you’ve learned about some charities, consider practising your generosity by donating to them or at least sharing the charity with friends and family members to spread the message.

 

3. Divert your own expenses.

 

One fantastic way to become more generous is to look at your own personal expenses and how you can divert them to something more charitable. For example, if you’re already spending a lot on entertainment or expensive food, consider pulling those funds for a week or two and contributing that excess to a charity instead.

 

Alternatively, you could do your part to assist in a charity’s goals. For example, if there’s a charity that aims to cut food waste and feed the homeless, then you could donate some of your own food that would otherwise be wasted or binned. This is a great way to extend your generosity and learn how you can contribute to the world in a meaningful way.
