It's never good to wish bad things for people you don't like. Karma has a way of enforcing the "what goes around comes around" phenomenon in our society. Look at the lives of O.J. Simpson and recently Tiger Woods. Karma is at work, though don't ask me to explain how and why it works.
Generosity creates good karma. What are examples of the ways to show generosity? The obvious ones are donating money and time to a non-profit, or helping remove debris from your neighbor's lawn after the recent tropical storm.
Are you able to be generous in your business?
There are many people that need help today due to the dire economic circumstances. If you are not in a position to hire at the moment, is there a way to show your generosity by helping the job seeker?
Entrepreneurs have an abundance of knowledge that can benefit someone who is unemployed. Many of the jobs that were eliminated in the past few years are not coming back. Starting a new business will be a consideration for this group of job seekers.
My friends at TEM Associates showed their generosity in 2009 by offering their conference room to host meetings for the Connecticut Re-Employment Group. More than 75 meetings have been held there in the past few years giving hope to those in transition. This is generosity and gift giving at a high level.
iPhones and Droids rule our lives. My hope is that the spirit of generosity will become as intrusive as our gadgets.
