Download or read book Dollars of Love written by Michael Hampson and published by . This book was released on 2021-12 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hello, this is Mikey and Elaine Hampson, parents to two wonderful boys and the founders of Dollars of Love. We wanted to tell each of you how proud we are of you for opening this book and taking the first step toward changing how the youth of today view the meaning of becoming rich. In this book, you will find everything you need to create an environment in your household, classroom, ball field - or anywhere for that matter - to empower young people to pursue love and good deeds first and, through first-hand experiences, teach them the power and concept of "when we give, we receive." From the time we are born, society slams down our throats that children need to pursue accolades and financial success; we are taught that these are life's most important treasures. Children start school, where good grades are treasured and winning awards are the focal point for anything they do, and they treasure these trophies. Our children are taught that good grades will lead to good colleges, and this, in turn, will result in a high-paying job where we can buy lots of things. To make matters worse, we make children perform chores for money so that they can buy things they treasure. What sort of pathways in their brains are we creating at such a young age? In our opinion, these pathways lead to selfishness instead of selflessness. It also hinders the pursuit of their higher calling, instead taught to suppress it to focus on society's harmful, generalized concept of treasure. We, as parents, decided that we did not want our children to grow up idolizing the treasures society tells us we need. They will have plenty of time to work and make money, but in our children's formidable years, we decided it was necessary to provide them with a foundation for pursuing love, kindness, and good deeds. Thus, the birth of Dollars of Love - a currency available to all walks of life, regardless of socioeconomic status. Dollars of Love is the most powerful kind of currency because it is earned through performing good deeds and actions of love. So, what, exactly, is a dollar of love? It is what your kids receive when they perform good deeds. At the end of the day, they will reflect upon each dollar of love earned and write on the back of it how it made them feel. At the end of the week, they can turn their dollars of love in for a prize. In the beginning, the prizes will reinforce their positive behavior, but as the weeks progress, the children will realize that the action of love earning them the dollar of love made them feel better than any prize they were awarded. This creates a pathway where it becomes second nature for the child to perform a good deed. It becomes a part of who they are. We also inadvertently came across the concept of saving the dollars of love and trading them for rewards of various sizes. This taught our children patience and fiscal responsibility, which are important later in life.
Download or read book Goodness and Kindness A Currency for Success Career life design for Young People written by Adeline Twigge and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-15 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Magic in one's career-life happens where your deep gladness and the world's deep hunger meet."Imagine an innovative engine - young people all over the world - that rapidly generates lots and lots of goodwill and creative solutions for local and global challenges that penetrates the human landscape and changes it for the better. In Goodness and Kindness: A currency for success (Career-Life-Design for Young People), young people are invited, by means of a career-life-design narrative, to become the authors of their own new stories, including a new identity and a new 'self', wherein a sense of the good can be woven. Young people are encouraged to realize they all have unique character strengths, interests, talents, capacities, and skills, which are called sparks. A spark (a young person's deep gladness) and an opportunity (the world's deep hunger) become potent together. A logical conclusion is that young people, who all have an awareness of their own sparks, will need to choose opportunities (including the pivotal actions of choosing and executing a career) where they feel they can make a positive difference in their more immediate environment. This can be done locally as a "civilian self/individual" and globally as a "cosmopolitan self/individual". Imagine the fireworks!To be able to design a sparkly life (which includes finding a decent job) to benefit themselves and others, they will need to understand the bigger picture - that all of us on planet Earth are connected and the actions of one has an influence on the other. Thus, they should ask themselves what is important, ethical, and meaningful for them personally, but also for their communities and on a global scale. And in return, together with having personal purpose and meaning added to their own lives, the youth would create a peaceful and affluent environment that exudes wellbeing on every level. In this way, the common good can and will be sustained and continuously expanded in service of fair and sustainable human development globally.
