7 Ways to Give Back

Leaders, what have you done for someone else today? Life isn't just work and work isn't your life. Where do you give back?

I think life is richer, and work is more satisfying when we give back. A lot of the ways for you to give back only take a few seconds but they make a HUGE impact!

It's so easy here are a few suggestions on how you can give and enrich your life:

1. Share an event or page on Facebook, especially if a friend is trying to get a business off the ground;
2. Make a comment on Linkedin, or endorse someone for a skill (if you genuinely know they possess that skill);
3. Volunteer your time or donate your money: there are a zillion non-profits out there -find one that lines up with your beliefs and spend some TIME helping them;
4. Take someone to lunch;
5. Call, email, text or WRITE to a friend or family member who you know is struggling with something;
6. Say "please" and "thank-you" when you are out in public and someone helps you; and,
7. Pay attention when people speak, put down the cell phone and engage.

Easy, right?
