Reasons To Help Others

I am asked all the time why I involve myself with other people and organizations. They just can't understand why someone would want to keep so busy helping out others. Especially when I am trying to promote and get my own business. Well the answer is simple... it makes me feel good!

I have gone through life doing things the hard way! Turns out that it isn't such a bad thing. Because of this, I was forced to learn as much as possible on certain subjects so I could make good, well-thought out decisions. So for others I am able to offer up ideas, suggestions and opinions so they don't have to go through what I did. When I see people successfully moving forward using what I suggested, it makes me feel good!

When I started my Meeting Planning company it was scary and I didn't know what to do. But now that I have been through the process and see what it takes, I can help others adapt more easily. I can reassure them about doubts, show them good websites to check out and maybe even throw in some DO NOT's that should definitely help get them started. I have seen results of those I have helped and I fee good about the fact that I was able to make it less stressful for them!!

The big business tool now is Social Networking using Facebook, Twitter, Linked In and You Tube. Well I have gone through a lot, read a lot, attended educational classes and am constantly learning ways to use these tools better so I can network my business. All this effort will be put to good use for not only myself, but others. Since I understand the ideas behind it as well as how it works, I am able to share this knowledge with others and make them more comfortable with it. I have been able to get countless people on Facebook & Twitter simply by taking time and explaining to people how it can work to their advantage and giving them basic knowledge on what they need to get started. I feel good to see people actually using these applications and feeling good about doing it.

It truly does make me feel good to be able to help others learn. I feel as if they appreciate it and I can see the stress melt away in their eyes when they start understanding something. I wish there were more people like me out there to take the time and help others simply because it gives you a good feeling! I will continue to help others where I can and some day it may come back around to me and someone will do the same for me!
