The Key to Making Our World a Better Place
Embracing True Generosity.
I thought I was generous until I met someone truly generous. A fiver here and a tenner there isn’t enough. True generosity is intentional and costly but worth it.
Remember, you’re here because of the generosity of others.
Think about it!
Like most people, you consider yourself generous. At times and in the moment — you respond to a charity appeal on the telly.
You give €20 to the starving children somewhere in the world. Then return to your life. Never to think again about the starving children.
Until the starving children somehow again penetrate your Ad-free Netflix binge months down the line.
And you are compelled to repeat the process — you give another €20 again.
If that’s the standard of your generosity — there is a problem. It is very negligible as a percentage of your annual income.
It’s not even 0.1% of your income.
If that’s everyone’s standard of generosity, then we have a massive problem.
The world would be a better place if we each raised our standards of generosity.
