It assumes there is a finite sized pie and if someone else enjoys success, my opportunity shrinks. But quite frankly, this thinking is incorrect. The pie of resources is not finite. It continues to grow as society benefits from others’ success.
confirm what generous people already know: Giving increases happiness, fulfillment, and purpose in the life of the giver. We were not designed to be creatures of selfishness. Instead, we were designed to seek and discover happiness in loving and caring for others. And those who decide to look for fulfillment there, quickly discover it.]]> 2021-01-23 13:55:15 UTC https://padlet.com/asierruiz/h0apvgfy2yejpftg/wish/1116910825 asierruiz https://padlet.com/asierruiz/h0apvgfy2yejpftg/wish/1116913809 Generosity in my opinion is also a way of expressing gratitude to life and the people around us or who we admire, because it helps us realize how much we receive every day. To, for a moment perhaps, see hope through the glass a little more full in the midst of our bewilderment generated by the disruptive and invasive technologies that many times separate us from the people we love instead of helping us get closer, or the negative news that scare us for the future, or the generalized distrust in the institutions that previously seemed to protect us. We can even feel a little joy thinking about how our act of generosity could affect the people who receive it. And maybe even a little serenity imagining that our drop of water could contribute to something bigger than us. Or even take pride in having run a marathon to benefit others.]]> 2021-01-23 13:57:30 UTC https://padlet.com/asierruiz/h0apvgfy2yejpftg/wish/1116913809
