The question was, "What am I supposed to do in life?" The answer: "Be generous." Think about the most successful people you knowthose with wealth, power, and status. Are they happy? Are they enlightened? Are they fulfilled? Maybe . . . and maybe not. Sometimes, the glitz of a social media façade hides a lonely, unfilled, and unrewarding life. Chances are, the happiest, most grateful, and most graceful people you know are the ones who have prioritized more than simple "success." Instead, these are the women and men who have chosen a different pathan others-first perspective that prioritizes giving over self-gratification and self-promotion. And not just generosityWISEgenerosity. In this landmark work, Chris Gabriel presents the guidebook on generosity for the modern age.
