Spiritual Awakening: Reaching Out and Impacting Lives
When I think of celebrities making an impact I think of Bono from U2. I then start to think we can all be like Bono in our own right be it sharing our knowledge with others or simply sharing a smile or a kind word.
Bono of U2 delivers a message of hope in the song Beautiful Day. It is when we wake up that we have a choice to make it a beautiful day despite the weather and any trials and tribulations that we may have. By making a conscious decision to reach out and positively impact the lives of others we are positively impacting our own lives. Bob Burg speakes about being a go-giver is his book The Go Giver and his book Go Givers Sell More.
These two books can be great toolsto help you make a positive impact in the lives of others while improving your personal and professional life.
M.J. Ryan’s Book, The Giving Heart has many stories that will inspire you to be a giver and to help you see the value of helping others.
I encourage you to share your stories about giving and how it has impacted your life. It is when we open up and help others that we see leaps in our personal and professional lives.

There are many examples of those reaching out and touching lives everyday. In the last week I have seen a community from The W.O.M.A.N. Club come together to help one of their own and they truly exemplified the idea that service to humanity is the best work of life. In the face of a tragic event they came together to help raise funds to make sure that Dr.Lynn Migdal was helped after her ex-husband and 2 daughters were killed in a mud slide in British Columbia. If you have an example of how people are reaching out and touching lives please share them under comments.
Spiritual Awakening: Tools To Help You Reach Out and Touch Lives
The greatest gift we can give others is to use our talents for good. The bible speakesof the parable of talents where the man who was given 5 bags of gold turned ity into 10 and was rewarded, the man given 2 bags of gold turned it into 4 and was rewarded and the man that was given 1 bag of gold kept and didn’t do anything with it and was punished. The story encourages us to use our talents and to pass them on freely without expectation of a return. (Matthew 25: 14-30)
Surrounding yourself with reminders of giving is a great way to set the tone each day to reach out and touch lives.
Caring crystals and stone will help you to continue to stay focused and grounded as you reach out and touch lives.
It is in the giving that we are rewarded. As you continue on your path look and seek of ways to be a giver.
