Give of Yourself

All of us are professionals and as such we have considerable demands on the time we spend building our business. Building your business must be your focus on a daily basis.

However there are people in your community that need your time and talents. Giving of your time and talents is not only needed it is one of the most fulfilling endeavors you could possibly devote your efforts to. The benefit will be manifest in lives of people you may never see but you will know that through your efforts these nameless individuals were provided the opportunity to live a life that they may not otherwise be afforded.

Throughout your community there are organizations who sole purpose is to serve others, especially the less fortunate. Get involved in one of these organizations and be one of the top 20% that are the go-to people who get things done. It is true that 20% of the people in any organization are responsible for 80% of the positive results. You should already be one of the people who make up the 20% in your profession so by focusing your talent and time to help others, you are well equipped to be a get-it-done individual in one of the organizations that need your help.

Giving of yourself without any expectation of recognition or reward is going to be of greater benefit to you than it will be to the people you are serving. It works that way every time, so get involved and give.
