Who do you know that's Struggling in any area of their Life?

I've been listening to a lot of friends and people in general lately about how they are struggling in one area or another in their lives

 If you know someone like this, ask them questions, and be a good listener. If you want to give advice as to how to help them and their situation, ask them first. Say, " Would it be okay if...."

If they say yes, great. If they say no, great again.

You shouldn't feel hurt or rejected that they didn't want your advice, instead feel honoured that they trusted you enough to tell you what's going on in their lives.

Be there for them. Actively listen to them. Look them in the eyes. If you're not sure about something that they said, ask them to clarify so you can better understand.

Some might ask what the listener gets out of this, and to that you say - the satisfaction of knowing that I helped someone today, and didn't expect anything in return. How often does that happen these days? How many times has that happened to you today, this week, this month?

Do you want to make your life great and fulfilling? This is a wonderful way to start.

Keep Moving Forward.
