Being generous is the willingness to help other people willingly without expecting something or anything in return. It is a very rare and only a few people have it. When most people hear about generosity, they expect that it involves a rich person. This, however, is not always the case. A generous person is able to share even the little they have since the act of giving is from within the heart of a person thus should not be gauged depending on how much one has. Below are some of the traits facilitating generosity.
There is no way a person can be generous if they do not care about their fellow men. People who do not care usually do not mind stepping on the oppressed in order to get themselves richer. However, a person who genuinely cares for other human beings will do their utmost best to improve the situation of the people in question even if it is by a little bit.
They have no expectation. People believe in the rub my back, and I will rub yours notion. This however not a form of generosity. It is more like making a deal with the devil in which we all know that nothing coming from the devil is free. A generous person will always do something for another person and not expecting anything in return. They are just satisfied knowing that they improved a life.
They are positive. This means that their level of optimism is very high. It does not matter the amount they contribute. For some people, they may compare themselves to others and begin to feel that their contribution is not as good. Generous people, however, see themselves as able to change the world in their own little ways.
Humility is one of the very rare traits of human beings. Giving should be for the purposes of helping out and not any personal benefits. Most people who donate huge amounts like to remain anonymous, and while it is not necessary, it is a very humble move. Some people like to be seen for how much they are able to give which means they seek attention.
Patience is one of the common traits in generous people. You may wonder how this is, but it actually makes sense. The reason for the generosity is to make the lives of other people change for the better. To try and eradicate a certain trait in society. This, however, is not that simple to achieve. Change effects over time and therefore patience is required in order to see results.
Generous people have a purpose. They understand that not everything is about them and they work towards improving the human race as a whole. They set out to make improvements in various aspects of life, and they succeed most of the time. For a non-generous person, they do things to gain recognition not to help anyone.
Being energetic goes a long way in the life of a generous person. They do not have only to be energetic in working hard to get the funds but also participating actively in getting the less fortunate. For example, if the problem is lack of food, they will not only donate the money but also participate in the cooking.
