Starting A Nonprofit
| |
| A nonprofit is essentially like creating a business. It requires the same need to engage in serious planning much, as a business does, before filing the incorporation papers, and applying for your tax exemption from the Internal Revenue Services. Everyday there are literally thousands of nonprofits being formed. The competition for money, volunteers, and other resources is huge. Your nonprofit will need to work hard to separate yourself from the masses. |

Lesson #1: Don’t Be Evil
| |
| “We have a mantra: don't be evil, which is to do the best things we know how for our users, for our customers, for everyone,” says Page. “So I think if we were known for that, it would be a wonderful thing.” From its search technology to its advertising to its own charitable foundation, Page and Brin have striven to create Google after the fashion of their own morals. The company refuses to place advertisements for hard liquor and donates 1% of its profits to charitable causes all in an effort to not “be evil”. |

The Power of Purpose
| |
| Do you know the purpose of your business? Do you clearly understand why you started your business? Have you communicated this purpose to all those who work with you? Have you documented the purpose? If the answers to any of these is ‘no’ then you are probably finding it difficult to stay on course as you are bombarded by the day to day surprises lurking in your future. The solution lies in the Power of Purpose, which states that when a business owner clearly knows and deeply believes in the purpose of her business she will achieve great success because she has a strong beacon to guide every action and decision.

The Universe is Calling - Will You Heed the Call?
| |
| "The soul is like a wild animal -- tough, resilient, savvy, self-sufficient, and yet exceedingly shy." Parker J. Palmer from Let Your Life Speak: Listening for the Voice of Vocation
In our last issue I made a distinction between one's life purpose and a calling or vocation. As you may recall the Life On Purpose Perspective offers that your life purpose is more about who you are as a spiritual being and what you came here to this life to be and to experience, while a calling or a vocation often has more to do with what you choose or are lead to do as an expression of your purpose.
Of course, on one hand anything that you do in life can be enhanced when it's 'poured' into the context of your life purpose. For example, several years ago with Life On Purpose Institute was just getting of |

You Really Want To Help The Poor? Get Rich!
| |
| Even though over 75% of all our taxes are paid by only 1% of our citizens, the tax revenue received for the express purpose of helping others greatly pales in comparison to the voluntary philanthropy of the wealthy 1%. And as stated earlier, these charitable funds are specifically targeted to a needy organization, hospital, or other cause, allowing the money given to actually be used by the recipients, instead of wasted in bureaucracy. Therefore, if you really care about helping the poor, get rich! Stop relying on your tax dollars to go the the people who need it most. Once you build your wealth, you can allocate your desired amounts to help those you wish to help. How do you get rich? Well, first you need to think differently.... |

Don't be a Scrooge. Charitable giving is critical to your community and business
| |
| For the business owner, charitable giving can be a challenging subject in business planning. How much to give? Who to give to? Can we give each year even if our company isn't doing as well as before due to the recessionary economic environment? Many questions have to be resolved. But making a commitment to annual charitable donations and involvement and standing by it -- for your community and your employees -- can be immensely rewarding. |

Sue Grafton is a Success Because She Loves What She Does
| |
| Successful people have a clearly defined purpose for their life. Sue Grafton's purpose is writing mystery stories that entertain large numbers of people. My purpose is helping others succeed. My friend's purpose was creating better surgical equipment. What is your purpose? It should be something you love. If you don't love it, you'll get burned out and see your work as a grind. If you love what you do, you see your work as a gift and something to which you look forward every day. As we approach the end of 2009, spend some time thinking about what you truly love doing. Then, and more important, think about how you can make doing what you love your life's work. |

Contact Oprah Winfrey
| |
| One factor in contacting the pontiff of daytime is what you need to contact Oprah Winfrey for exactly. Are you a charitable organization? If so, are you seeking a donation or perhaps a little help raising awareness to your cause? Are you just an individual looking to help out with one of Oprah's many charitable causes, or like me, just wanted to know if she can swing by for some BBQ? These are all factors you need to consider. In some ways Oprah is a lot like the government of a small country, you nearly have to go through channels to reach an equitable conclusion. When you contemplate how famous she is and how many irons she has in the fire at a time, there should be no question as to whether or not she has a huge staff. My guess is; yes |
