“After complaining to his sponsor about having to attend so many meetings with his now busy life, his sponsor asked his newcomer what he might do with the extra time, if he had it. The sponsee replied that he would do more work to improve his finances. His sponsor told him the truth, “Your life is your gift from God. What you do with your life is your gift to God.”
You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give.
— Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet
It is not the matter of giving that is in question, but when and how to give. That often makes the difference between failure and success.
