Give More, Get MoreÂ
It turns out; money can buy happiness—if you spend it on someone else. Several studies show that giving makes us happy. It turns out you don’t have to give money; simply donating your time can profoundly impact your happiness while also spreading joy to others.
A study found that Americans who ranked themselves as “very happy,” volunteered an average of 5.8 hours a month versus those who volunteered just 6 hours per month who classified themselves as “very unhappy.” 
Gratitude Helps You Reach Financial GoalsÂ
Psychological Science declares, “Gratitude Helps Us Reach Financial Goals” Research shows that people tend to favor short-term gratification versus the long-term value of future rewards. However, this study finds that thankfulness triggers “patience and a willingness to hold out for greater monetary gain.”Â
In closing, we want to thank you and reiterate our gratitude to you for being part of our coaching pilot.  Â
