The Highest Joy: Saving Your World While Helping Yourself

We're all selfish. But we can channel that selfishness into a powerful and worthwhile direction...


Today, as much or maybe more than ever, the world needs you. So, this post is short and to the point. Check out this great site and learn why volunteering, even a little, is so good for you, personally, as well as the community:

From the site: "While some people are naturally outgoing, others are shy and have a hard time meeting new people. Volunteering gives you the opportunity to practice and develop your social skills, since you are meeting regularly with a group of people with common interests. Once you have momentum, it’s easier to branch out and make more friends and contacts."


Hey, you said you wanted to make a contribution. Here's your chance to do it well, and to do it with joy and satisfaction.
