Giving Back

I talk a lot about how to make more money by changing your attitude, empowering yourself and taking action. The money provides freedom and security in your life. At any level of income, you might want to consider giving some money away to your favorite charities. The concept is that if you let money go freely out of your life it will also come freely into your life. You don’t want to develop a ’scarcity’ attitude where you hoard everything, worry about your competition stealing your clients, worry about other countries stealing your jobs, and being afraid to give some money away.

Instead, you want to develop an ‘abundance’ attitude. You expect money will come freely into your life so you’re not afraid of letting some go to worthy causes. I like to give to animal charities. There are so many good causes to choose from. Since time is also valuable you could give that way as well by volunteering. If this concept is foreign to you, try giving away some of your possessions. Give away some clothes or books. This is also known as ‘non-attachment’. Don’t become attached to things.

Be grateful for what you have at any stage in your life!
