Steps on Successful Giving

A new innovation is transforming many lives in the villages of India by bringing light were there used to be darkness.

The New York Times published an article titled, „Husk Power for India“. Electricity, which is prevalent in the lives of many in developed nations, is a pure luxury in remote areas of developing ones. What was once fed to animals now is used to generate electricity – rice husks.

Growing up in rural Bihar State, Manoj Sinha knew what it was like to sit in the dark. Being an engineer with Intel Corporation he had all the skills to make a life long idea come alive. He led the development of his electricity equipment that generates power from rice husks and other farming waste and now he sells it to villages across India.

Sinha is what could be called a social industrialist because he feels entrepreneurship is a way out for important problems of the society. „Business leaders must realise that the world’s poor need investments more than handouts,“ he says, adding, „these are customers, not victims.“

The article inspired me to think about giving in a different way leading me to ask myself, „what is the most effective form of giving?“ Is it education, commercial activity or disaster relief? There are so many ways to make a difference. One way of giving can seem more effective or sustainable than other ways depending on the way it is expressed, looked at or implemented.

I then came to define there were eight parts to giving as a way to look at this. So, let me map out the eight distinctions; which in effect are often ’stages‘ of giving as well.

Phase one: Exigency – salvaging and helping others who are suffering due to natural calamities, epidemic diseases or other insurmountable problems.

Stage two: Reprieve – providing reprieve from long-standing malnutrition, penury, illnesses, handicaps or inequity which otherwise would prolong or get worsened because of the lack of perception, edification or resources.

Phase three: Curing and defending – morally, bodily and spiritually. Many people carry scars that may be invisible but strongly constricting their lives. Giving the cure to release the long-standing suffering creates more chances for them while giving necessary defense gives them a feeling of security.

Stage four: Training – giving better training, knowledge and skill instruction to create empowered and practical solutions to resource creation while encouraging people to identify their singular talent to survive.

Stage five: Creative investment – lending a hand, money or resources to those who have great potential to make a difference. This gets leveraged many times as the resources increase and passed on to many others who again make more out of the opportunities given.

Stage six: Tenability – working together with the people in the local surroundings, creating tenable groups – ambience-wise and reciprocally.

Stage seven: Empowerment – empowering and inspiring the people to unleash their true potential and motivation to make a difference. In this group of giving, the aim of giving changes from ‚giving to the people who are in need‘ to ‚giving people opportunity to give to others‘ and to the community.

Phase eight: Caring – just doing whatever we want to do to cherish and care for others. No tactic or expected result exists in this phase of giving. ‚Giving‘ does not even exist here in the conventional sense of the word, as there is no sense of ownership or reasoning or yearning to alter anything. This is where we do not even have to worry about anything, we give as a part of our own delightful sense of being.

What we also find is that at each of these eight stages of giving there are different things that the giver receives.

One: Sense of relationship

Two: Sense of contentment

Three: respite from hurt (our own)

Four: Thankfulness for our own ideas, gifts and conditions

Five: Long-term sense of involvement and fulfillment for our own life

Six: Improved atmosphere for our own life and for the lives of all those we value and cherish

Seven: Soul fulfilling inspiration and dedication to our own purpose

Eight: Love

Giving has many levels and experiences depending on the giver and the receiver. And the ’stages‘ do not describe which one is more important than the other. All are necessary.

I was lucky to have an experience early in 2008 while journeying with a group of devoted entrepreneurs across India to see how we could be more productive in our helping. I was particularly happy to have one outstanding encounter that led me to think about what ‚actual giving‘ really meant.

We were in a small town one day. Four of us had just called a taxi to take us to another town in the vicinities. We bargained with the driver with care as our hotel staff had told us beforehand that we could be duped since we were not local.

We stopped in front of the local train station for a short break on the way. While the others disappeared off to use the bathroom, I started a conversation with our taxi driver standing next to the taxi. With very limited English and a full smile exposing his blackened front teeth, he told me that he had a house on the outskirts of the town and he had a young wife and two children who went to the local school – I started to feel connected to him.

I appreciated the fact of his having such a wonderful family and told him that I too had two little ones of almost the same ages as his. When the others were back the driver suddenly invited us to come to his house and have lunch. I took it only as a formality that was customary courtesy. But after taking us to the town center and leaving us there, he told us that he would wait for us until all our wandering in the town was over. And he really did. I was actually quite astonished to see him still remaining glued to the side of the road next to his taxi more than one hour later. We got into the taxi and he drove fast up the road to where he had his family.

When we reached there we were really quite taken aback to see how he was living. It was more or less similar (if not worse) to the standard of people dwelling in slums we had visited before. From the gleaming new taxi he was driving, who could have thought this

As the car turned into the narrow unsealed road between the hut-like houses that were constructed with crudely made concrete blocks and painted mud walls, we felt contrite about having agreed to his invitation. For a brief moment I felt mortified. „How could I have exploited the generosity of a man who didn’t seem to have anything and I didn’t even get any edible stuff or presents for his family“, I thought.

As we got into his house, we saw a small pot and a stove on the mud floor. His shy sweet wife smiled and blushed at the sight of visitors and vanished into the cupboard sized storeroom of the house. As I looked around, I saw the man’s neighbours giving the woman a few cups over the crumbling concrete walls. They simply didn’t have enough cups in their house. There was just a single small room that had a lone cot and an old galvanised trunk adjacent to it.

The cab driver swiftly took out three hand-woven rugs from the galvanised box and placed it neatly on the small space of the mud floor keeping one on the bed.

Hot cups of tea came pretty fast and so did some snacks. His kids as well as all the little ones in the neighbourhood came to see us and stood around near the door. All six of us were totally wedged into the small room. I asked him with surprise where all his children slept. I thought they might be having another space somewhere. To my utter surprise, he pointed the chest and happily said that it was their sleeping space.

He cheerfully informed us that he was a dancing expert of the area and pointed at the medals displayed on the recess above his bed. Bent on showing us his dancing skills he at once ran outside. From some place music started coming into the tiny room. He has no arrangement for music in the house, it was flowing in from outside. I wondered where it came from till I saw him bringing his taxi in reverse to the back wall of his house with the doors open and music flowing in from the high volume car radio!

With his dancing and the cups of tea his wife produced, time moved quickly and it was soon time to thank them for their wonderful hospitality and proceed on our way. As we got up to leave and give our thanks to him and his wife, he took the best of the rugs he had, rolled it and gave it to us. It was practically one of the handful of good things he had. It was difficult to comprehend the enormity of the gesture.

We all politely declined his gift and walked out saying goodbye to all the people waving at us. We got confused about this whole thing. Should we have given some money to the family as their life obviously looked very limited? Should we have accepted his prized gift?

As I was thinking about this life-changing experience a few days later, I thought about the refusal of his gift. He looked disappointed that we didn’t take the gift. It wasn’t just about saying no to the gift that stuck in my mind.

I realised that the sense of discomfort I felt was actually coming from perceiving him as less fortunate. I was thinking that I couldn’t possibly take anything from someone who had so little.

But did he really have nothing much? Maybe he had much more – many more.

Maybe the perfect gift we could have given him then was to accept his gift in total surrender and gratefulness.

All acts of giving and receiving are necessary for us to fill our world with abundance and fulfillment equally for both giver and receiver. We can start doing this instead of judging and justifying one over another. The pure act of giving and receiving requires no further explanation.

Manoj Sinha’s words echo in my mind once again, „these are customers, not victims.“ I can imagine the smiling faces of the villagers who are now proud to have electricity in their villages and the children who now can read books and learn in their homes at night.

Green Cards and Environmental Responsibility

Nearly twelve years ago, my parents bought and took over the family business, a forty room hotel in our hometown. They made quite a few changes to the hotel, one of which was adding an environmental policy to their business practices and philosophies. One tool they started using were „green cards“, or what my mom calls her contribution to Green PR.

These cards describe the hotel’s environmentally friendly practices, including doing their part to reduce water waste, as well as the large amounts of detergent dumped into the water system by hotels. Customers who are staying more than one night can place this card on the unmade bed in the morning, to alert the housekeeping crew not to wash the sheets and towels. They also describe how every day in hotels, thousands of gallons of detergent and millions of gallons of water are used to wash towels and sheets that have only been used once. These cards allow customers to do something good for the environment, and has resources at the bottom for other ways to help the planet while traveling.

Items like green cards fall into the category of Green PR, which is a term used to describe something that is used to spark changes in environmental policy. The definition wikipedia gives is: „…a sub-field of public relations that communicates an organization’s…environmentally friendly practices to the public.“ Green cards are one of several tools used in this category of public relations. Other tools include placing news articles, winning awards, and communicating with environmental groups.

My parents didn’t stop at using green cards either. When they wanted to further communicate their environmentally safe practices, they wrote about them in the various advertising articles they submit to tourism advertising magazines. They also took their Green PR to the local lodging association, which they are members of, with the goal of helping other businesses change their environmental policies, or in some cases, develop them. They presented the other lodging owners with the green cards and their philosophy of protecting the environment, and helping customers do the same. My parents are just one example of how a company is using this type of PR to inspire change in environmental policy in their type of business.

Thousands of other companies have done the same thing, moving the entire field of companies the provide products and services, toward greater environmental responsibility.

Is Procrastination Putting YOU Off?

Ive been meaning to write about procrastination for a long time, but somehow, I just did get around to it Does that sound uncomfortably familiar? Anyone who is breathing runs the risk of suffering from the human condition. Since human beings avoid pain and seek pleasure, we tend to procrastinate despite our best intentions. How can we get around this issue? Did your mama teach you to Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today? Maybe a few suggestions will help get you into gear and assist you to overcome the whole put-off-until-tomorrow-what-you-can-get-out-of-doing-today scenario! Youll do your mama proud!

Set a Goal Lets begin with the notion that you get to the end of your day without accomplishing tasks. That very fact affects and sabotages your next days schedule. Can we agree that you will function more smoothly with a simple To Do list? It may look something like this;

Make the bed, tend to personal care, eat a nourishing breakfast

Get to work before the workplace is crowded and noisy; take care of phone calls and email

Arrive on time for meetings

Errands during lunch time: make dinner reservations for Friday; order flowers for spouses special day

Pick up Chinese for dinner en route home from work Im sure you get the idea

When you and I were Kindergarteners we got a star for our accomplishments. Its no different now; we still like those silver stars at the top of our paper. So GIVE yourself a silver star by drawing a line through each task as it is done and draw a star at the top of your page! Or, buy some silver star stickers from the office supply store. Put that on your To Do list.

Be Accountable If you lack the discipline to make your list and follow through all the way to the silver stars, you may benefit from an Accountability Partner. It may be your other half; it may be your best friend; it could be a business associate. I am privileged to have an Accountability Partner. Here is how I handle that: I email my To Do list in the morning as I begin my workday. I enumerate the projects I plan to tackle, including lunchtime, food prep and exercise time. Before the day is over, I send a progress update. This process takes all of 5 minutes and it helps me to feel as if I am on track for my projects and the minutiae of my day. If you are a work from home person, you can have a thousand interruptions during any given workday. Double that possibility if you have children in your busy home! Having a plan, utilizing a partner for accountability and sticking to it means you have a much better chance to enjoy the success you design for yourself!

Take a Break Do remember to give yourself a slice of time every day to goof off, throw paper wads, have a leisurely cup of coffee, or just think. If you make time for relaxation you will find yourself to be far more productive. Sometimes you will need a nap. Your body will give you clues: you will feel sleepy or you may find yourself making silly mistakes. You may be yawning or daydreaming. For heavens sake, TAKE a NAP! Just by slipping in a 20 to 30 minute power nap you could be adding years to your life, zip in your energy level and youll boost your immune system! In addition, you will have a fresh perspective for your work. The world will continue to turn on its axis as you snooze and all your work will wait patiently for your return!

One More Point Just because you are seriously accountable to avoid procrastination does not mean you should take yourself and your life too seriously. Remember to laugh, especially at yourself. Find a joke book “ put that on your To Do list, if you must “ and have some fun with your life. Add a short riddle to the list you send to your Accountability Partner and spread the humor around like jam on toast!

Now that you are well supplied with suggestions, do NOT neglect putting at least one of these ideas in place! Remember what your mama said about putting things off? You do NOT want to disappoint your mama!

If US financial news disheartens, for example, both sterling and EUR/USD can move higher. Although the EUR/USD sees a 60-point rally on the day, GBP/USD might see a one hundred+ point rally.

Building Back Links

The key to building a long term successful internet business lies with your ability to pick up back links on a consistent basis. Back links are the purest form of gold in the online world. The more back links you have, the higher you will rank in the society of search engines.

Of course back links are just one piece of the equation for a successful online business. The formula is SEO or search engine optimization. There are two parts to SEO, off site and on site optimization.

The keywords you choose to use have to be placed on your website strategically so the search engines can recognize what they are. They should be placed in your title, META tags, h1 headers, h3 headers, and maybe even in some of your „alt“ image tags.

The off site portion of SEO would include the back links and what words you use to anchor those links. An anchor link is the click able portion of the words. You would use the href tag to anchor or hyper link your keywords. When you anchor link your back links using the keywords on your website, it’ll give it an extra boost in the rankings.

Now the question is how do you pick up back links? There are many answers to that question.

You can pick up back links by writing and submitting articles. The article directories you submit your articles to will allow you to leave a back link to your website in the authors resource box. To get the most out of article marketing you should submit unique articles to each directory. Google will usually only count the back link from the first unique article and won’t count duplicates. Its too easy to do and results in spamming.

You can also pick up back links from article directories, commenting on other blogs, participating in forums, press releases, and link exchanges. The best way to pick up back links is to use a comprehensive strategy, a combination of each of the above.

It’s also wise to make things look as natural as possible for the search engines. Too much can hurt, and too little means a dead website.

Setting up a daily game plan for what needs to be done may be the easiest way to make sure you are consistently picking up back links. Set a goal for each day and to stick with it. Ten to twenty back links a day and spreading them out in all directions will help get your website on the move up the rankings.

Gettin Down and Stayin Up!

John came to prison as a pre-teenager. He was angry, hurt, and he really did not fully understand what had brought him to behind those walls. He fought. He was belligerent and combative. He lived in a childish, youthful frame so he was smaller than his compatriots. He spent many months in isolation. During that time he slept, he swore and he scowled. He was alone in his gloomy cell with nothing but his thoughts.

One day, just when John thought he might lose his mind, his eyes fell on a lead pencil. He had trouble discerning whether the pencil was an illusion. Finally, tentatively, he picked up the pencil.

That very act changed his life forever. Using that pencil, he made a simple sketch. Then he made another. Before long, he had created a portfolio of black and white drawings and his work was improving. With every line John made, some of the anger that had raged inside him seemed to evaporate.

Johns attitude and behavior warranted his move from the small cell into the general population. His anger no longer flared; instead, he began to smile. He felt better physically. He regarded the officers around him with respect. As he matured he became a leader in the clubs he joined and among his peers in his housing unit. He continued to draw; he was using pastels and he was receiving accolades for his efforts.

Drawing was not Johns only mode of expression. He is interested in music and was delighted to learn that getting down with the beat helped keep his attitude up. He goes around the campus, grinning, humming, singing, playing air drums and spreading good cheer in his path.

John gave a speech about his journey through prison. He spoke about realizing that the only way he ever would be released from all the anger and frustration he felt as a child and teenager was to sit in that awful place, alone with the reality of his thoughts, experiencing who he was. By doing that, he became transformed into a leader who, despite his surroundings, experienced joy. At this time he is a magnificently talented artist. He has learned to be hospitable, charitable, and gracious. His art work is gloriously beautiful and matches his smile in its brilliance and warmth. His musicality is infectious and uplifting.

It is highly unlikely that John will leave the prison walls and live unencumbered in society. But John, in his adult wisdom, understands that he created this life. He has made the best of a bad situation and used his time to become a much better, highly productive person. He is living with his own consequences and creating the best life he knows how, given his restrictions.

Suffering from the human condition, we tend to imprison ourselves within our own minds. We whine and complain; we lash out and blame others. We may be endowed with all the physical and mental attributes to accomplish anything at all. Yet, we hang back, live with regret, do not forgive ourselves-or others-and we suffer the consequences. We live in the same type of misery in which John found himself mired. We may not have stringent rules about our behavior as we go about our lives, the way incarcerated people have, but we place our own limits on ourselves. We make excuses. We procrastinate. We fail to take action. We are not accountable. We remain imprisoned by our own ugly, negative thoughts.

Each of us may not have the fabulous artistic ability John has displayed, but every single one of us has unique gifts to offer the world. A portion of those gifts includes simply living and breathing our authentic selves.

I move we all get down with a beat to keep our attitudes up! In reality, we could even give ourselves permission to move to the beat of our own drummer!
