I take pride in everything that I do and strive to give my all to the people who need my help, and this is the basis of my personal model of helping. I cannot give someone only part of my effort because the individual may not take me serious and not be able to use the help that I am offering. My goal in offering this help is to assist them in overcoming any negative situation they are trying to get out of. People reach out for help and when they do so they want the best help that they can find because they can seek a positive resolution. I know that circumstances in life can take a toll on a person, and these circumstances cause them to be in the situation that they are seeking help for but to change their behavior and improve themselves they need to give 100% as well as the people who are offering help to them.…
In life there are times when people cannot only focus on themselves. In order to move on, and fulfill life’s destiny you must help those that surround you. One cannot truly understand who they are and why they were brought to earth unless they consider helping those around them. Helping others teaches you to become more understanding patient, and sympathetic toward others. You initially free yourself of any conflict between others and help them as well.…
The Kiwanis International Club held a survey where they asked when is it important to help out others? 75% of people believe in helping others when it will have an important impact on not only their lives but on other people's lives. When asked what type of community service makes the biggest difference, ⅔ answered hands on activities such as donating supplies, volunteering with a local service club, or participating in local community events have a bigger influence than just giving out money (Most Americans Believe One Can Can Change the World). Today, because of the sacrifices and achievements of many strong leaders, others now have their independence from countries, they have the right to vote, improved working conditions, or just an opportunity to be a better person. According to the survey on volunteerism done by the Kiwanis International Club, 86% of Americans believe one person can make a change (“Most Americans Believe One Can Change the World”). If this many people believe that humans are capable of making a change in the world, then the only thing stopping us from improving the world is us. As a quote by an anonymous person states “If you’re searching for that one person who will change your life...take a look in the mirror”; humans are the future of the world, and to live prosperous lives, we should be willing to help improve not only our living conditions, but to not be selfish and lend a helping hand to others in need as well. What the world is molded into is because of us, and as John F. Kennedy once said, “Making a positive difference in our own life or the lives of others, organizations, and the world at large starts with a healthy mind, body, and spirit, and a change of daily thoughts, communications, and actions of our own self…
Thank you, Angie, for the feedback.The volunteers help others without any intentions of self-gain. They wanted to serve others and aim at the betterment of the people they serve. This is the basic philosophy of servant leadership (Greenleaf Center for Servant Leadership, 2016). Hence, volunteerism is an integral part of servant leadership. A servant leader, serves others, with altruism (Center for Ethics, 2010). There is no place for any personal fears or worldly obligations in any phase of serving others.…
My interpretation of “people helping people” is “people helping people” can be looked at as a selfless act of encouragement to one individual or a whole community. By helping those with a certain need to only get the profit of satisfaction is a fundamental philosophy to keep our society well-endowed and strong as a community. I have personally demonstrated this in my community by participating in my school’s Operation Christmas Child to help children across the world see what a better life is and to help them reach it on earth, and with God. I also volunteered for four summers at our City’s Park’s Program as a junior counselor, watching children and giving them a place to enjoy their summer outside and also educate them as we took field trips to the Corning Museum of Glass. I personally have lived by my own interpretation of the selfless philosophy of “people helping people”…
The idea of giving rewards to people who exhibit charitable acts is a very popular idea. Some schools offer incentives, such as extra credit, in order to get the students to do service to the community. Tax reductions are even given to people who donate money or service to charitable organizations. The practice of offering incentives for charitable acts is unethical because it undermines the value of charity as being a selfless act.…
A lot of social psychological research focuses on anti-social behaviour. This essay will look at the other side of the coin and focus on pro-social behaviour, specifically helping behaviour and altruism. It will look at what causes people to help or not help and the phenomenon of altruism, the act of helping other for no discernable reward.…
One of the main reasons why we do not have a responsibility to help is that our most important responsibility is to the people we know and love. This is because we regard a special relationship as very important. This idea is supported by Fraser (2007), who also believes her only responsibility is to herself, her families and her friends. She gives an example which is, if two children are drowning and one of two children is our son and the other is a stranger’s son, most of us would try to save our son because he is a special for us. If we save a stranger, we may not save our son. So, if we have responsibility to help poor strangers who live in undeveloped counties, we will not be able to help the people who we know and love. In sum, we should put the people who close to us before the strangers.…
I have always been of the opinion that, if, everyone contributes positively towards the society by way of giving help and support where needed, this world will be a better place.…
people of the world provide them with their means of living. If no one supported them or help them they would not be where they are today. They may be the one in needed. Anything can happen and they may have to depend on someone kindness to eat,have clothes and even have clean water. If they did not have the support of the people they would have to find a way to make a living some would fail with out their support. So I feel that they have a responsibility to give back.…
In the end i would just say that helping others can really make you a better person well-known for your good…
There are also things you can do that not only help the world, but the people living in it, like donating to charities and supporting events that help the poor. All this makes the world a better place. Imagine what it would be like if every one of us had given to charities and donated to the poor; the world would have less homeless people, people wouldn’t die from starvation as much.…

There have been some controversial theories on the helping of others. One theory is from the egoists. A major believer in the egoism theory is the famous author, Ayn Rand. She believes that a person should only help another person if they hold value to them, or if in helping them they will receive something in return, which is all supposed to relate to one’s own happiness. Egoism claims that each person has but one ultimate goal: his or her own welfare. This theory also implies that not everyone can be an egoist. It relies on other people being altruistic.…
