Flex your Giving Muscle

We can purposely alter our brain structures by the behaviors we choose.
Eric Jensen, Enriching the Brain

"When we flex our giving muscles every day, the process begins to transform our own lives. Because however successful we are, when we go out in the world to 'get things,' when we strive to achieve a goal, we are operating from a perceived deficit, focused on what we don’t have and are trying to obtain—until the goal is achieved. And then we go after the next goal. But when we give however little or much we have we are tapping into our sense of abundance and overflow."

Arianna Huffington (Thrive) continues, "Giving sends a message to the universe that we have all we need. We become virtuous by the practice of virtue, responsible by the practice of responsibility, generous by the practice of generosity, compassionate by the practice of compassion. And we become abundant by giving to others."
