Do you view yourself as a generous person? Consider it for a second. How you answer this question determines how you feel as a person.
No matter how great or bad your life is at the moment, the simple act of giving can transform your life tremendously.
And when I talk about giving, I'm talking about genuine giving.
Most of the time, our giving is done out of a biased mind. We give and we expect something in return. This kind of giving leads to disappointment and heartache.
But if you want to experience profound joy which in turn attracts more blessings to your life, then you should practice genuine generosity.
Moreso, there are 5 things you can be generous with right now that will raise your mood and make you feel energized. You'll be more fulfilled.
Give Away Praise

Most of the time, the people closest to us—our partners, our kids, our parents, and occasionally our friends—are the ones we find hardest to compliment. Anger and resentment are a big part of the problem. Nevertheless, in a peculiar way, when we give thanks to the people in our lives, we let go of the bad energy and make room for their love for us.
By making it a habit to genuinely praise others, even if it seems little or insignificant, it puts smiles on people's faces, and I can promise you that it will transform your mood.
Give Away Information

This might be counterintuitive to what you already know, which is to hide information so that you can have a competitive advantage over your rivals, but trust me, doing so would close doors for you.
This can be a huge task because so much of what we learn in life comes to us with great difficulty. And for some reason, we often feel a desire to see other people experience the same level of hardship that we did.
But being generous with useful information to help others expands your horizons and opens more doors for you. When you become a support to others, you actually become bigger than you are.
Give Away Time
You are very busy, we know. But give away some time to help others, and the best way to start is through volunteering.
Once in a while, make it a habit to help out around the neighborhood or at church. This will boost your feelings because you will know that you have made a significant contribution to a great cause.
Give Away Money

Fear of money often persists, no matter how wealthy we are. We just have these feelings of "Enough is never enough", so we always cling to what we have and we only give when we have more than enough to spare.
The answer to an obsession with money lies in loosening up and letting go. Being secure does not mean you have more than enough, but rather that you can do without money.
When you begin to practice "letting go," you now give with the belief that you'll find a way to have whatever you need.
You immortalize your faith. You know that you'll never lack. Genuine givers never lack, not in this lifetime or the one to come.
Give Away Love

In the holy scriptures, there's a particular chapter of the new testament that talks about love; 1 Corinthians chapter 13. Here's what verses 4 to 8 have to say about love.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.
As far as I am concerned, all the "give aways" mentioned are all signs of giving away love. And I know that love also cuts deeper than all of that. There are variations on love. degrees of affection.
One of them is allowing others or loved ones to learn and grow, thereby supporting them.
Whenever we support the growth of loved ones without feeling that our existence is threatened, then we are giving away love.
Your attitude and behavior towards people definitely show how much you love them. You can't fake it, but you can improve upon it by changing your mindset and knowing that, in the end, we are all connected. We are one and nobody can do it just by himself.
There's no way that you'll genuinely give away praise to appreciate others, information to help others, time in the form of assistance, money in the form of support, and love to show affection and not experience profound fulfillment.
There's joy in giving, never forget that. And also remember that you have greatness within you.
Thanks a million.
