Mountain. Molehill.

Mountain. Molehill. We all have problems. I recently learned about a guy who needed a few hundred dollars for something more than legitimate. I thought about offering to chip in for $100, but instead I did nothing.   I felt bad about it all week, and the next time I was with my friends who also knew about this, I said you know, this guy just needs a few hundred dollars.   I cant do the whole thing, but I can put in $100. It feels so good to be at a point where I can do this for someone else.   I recognize that a few hundred dollars for this gentleman is a mountain something that he simply cant conquer. For many, even in this economy, $100, or a few hundred dollars, is nothing more than a molehill. What can you do for someone else today?   Heres a non-monetary idea: Reach out to someone you know who you havent talked to in a while, just to say hi, and that you wanted to see how they were doing.   This is pretty significant for someone who is lonely. Heres another non-monetary idea as a job seeker I thought I had nothing to offer job seekers.   But I really had the thing they wanted and needed most: Introduce one of your contacts to someone.   I didnt have money, but I was networking into a lot of great people doing an introduction between two people can be one of the greatest things you have to offer.   And you can do it today. Want more ideas?   Three months ago I wrote How To Help a Job Seeker.   Still one of my favorite posts. Mountain. Molehill. We all have problems.
