We tend to get lost in our own sadness and hopelessness. And we tend to fail seeing that, if we live a life to serve, we are less likely o fall into a negative spiral full of negative emotions.
We can dedicate a part of our energy to give a better life for as many people as we can. Your family, your kids, your couple, your coworkers, your community, humanity at a large scale. This way you dedicate your life as a contributor to the net happiness and well-being of all humanity.
This is what the 3rd column of the 3MIQ Framework is about!

For this one, ask yourself honestly:
Is my product, good or service helping other people and also responsible for long-term humanity? (Think about the environment, health or well-being of other people)
Are you working for a company that is Humanity Plus or Humanity Minus
This may be a tough one but it is important to be honest!
If you are participating in a Humanity Minus project, you might want to question your career decision! (I told you this might be a tough one) and, as painful as it may be you might need to make a career shift
Are you creating something to bring joy to the world? (Think about music, art, poems, writing, software)
Are you sharing your abilities, money, knowledge or time with others who do not have it easy?
No matter how sad your life might be, giving back is one of the fastest ways to happiness. So, think about all the ways you want to contribute to the world. No matter how big or small your ideas, write down every way you want to make the world a better place.
