Helping others isn’t helpful if you can’t do it properly
Whether it’s in the workplace or your personal life, being a volunteer can be immensely rewarding. And although it can seem that the altruistic intent puts the focus on helping others, volunteering also provides the volunteer with lots of benefits. It can be a way to gain new skills or try out a new activity, and helping others can be deeply fulfilling experience that’s positive for your wellbeing. It can also give you a reputation of being a kind, helpful person – regardless of whether you’re actually helping.
