Throughout history, from business and politics to sports and the arts, people with successful careers have all shared the experience of helping others. As leaders in their fields, part of their success comes from helping other people succeed.

In his book, “Give and Take: Why Helping Others Drives Our Success,” management and psychology professor Adam Grant cites several studies on how helping others can yield long-term benefits to a person. From a relationship and motivation perspective, “givers” are proven to build deeper and broader connections with other people, helping them enrich the meaning and purpose of their lives. But beyond relationships and motivation, volunteerism also helps people acquire new knowledge and skills from their experience.

Think about it, at one point in a person’s life, he or she has become successful through the help of someone. And in the process, those who have helped others succeed are also helping others to achieve something in life.
