Tithing is the practice of giving away 10% of your income (tithe means 'tenth?) Cheap Jerseys , usually to a charitable cause. Some people absolutely swear by the practice of tithing and consider it integral to the process of wealth creation.


Benefits of tithing include:




Overcoming scarcity thinking. Tithing helps you develop a greater sense of abundance. By giving away 10% of your income, you're programming your subconscious to believe in abundance thinking. This can make you more open and receptive to receiving money. If you think abundance, you're more likely to experience abundance.


Supporting a worthy cause. If the money you tithe is put to good use, you can financially support a cause that's important to you.


Achieve greater wealth. Whenever you earn more money Wholesale MLB Baseball Jerseys , your tithes increase as well, so your cause(s) receive greater financial support. This can be extremely motivating for some people.


Personally I think some people get too caught up in the specific practice of tithing and lose sight of its real purpose. Too often I see people feeling guilty about not tithing (or not tithing enough). Or they develop a love-hate relationship with the practice, feeling compelled to tithe even though they have mixed feelings about it. They feel they should tithe, but they don't completely want to tithe.


It's perfectly OK not to tithe. If you don't feel a desire to tithe Wholesale Baseball Jerseys , don't beat yourself up about it. Let go of the guilt, and forgive yourself. Not tithing doesn't make you a bad person.


Tithing must be done from a state of abundance. If you harbor thoughts of scarcity as you tithe, then tithing will only become a source of incongruence and pain for you.


Consider the true purpose of tithing. The purpose of tithing is to serve the highest good of all. But tithing is only one of many ways to serve the highest good, certainly not the only way. There are many other ways to serve the greater good. Here are some ideas:




Give time. Donate time to a cause you find is worthy. Perform an act of service.


Give information. Write articles or start a blog to share your knowledge freely with others who may benefit by it.


Give talents. Use your skills to help someone who can't afford to pay for them.


Give acknowledgement. Smile at people. Give someone a kind word today. Acknowledge a job well done.


Give encouragement. Be supportive of those around you. Let others know you care about them.


Give thoughts. Intend the best for other people. Pray or meditate for others if those practices have meaning for you.


Give touch. Give someone a pat on the back Wholesale MLB Jerseys Cheap , a handshake, or a hug. Give a massage. Give a passionate kiss.


Money is not the only way to give. In my opinion money is actually the weakest form of giving in comparison to the above. I find other forms of giving to be much more enjoyable.


Give Congruently


I used to tithe money to charities in the past, but I was never fully comfortable with that practice because there were many charitable causes I felt uneasy about supporting. For example, I don't feel comfortable supporting charities that conduct medical research via torturously cruel experiments on animals. I don't see those charities as truly working "for the highest good of all Wholesale MLB Jerseys Free Shipping ," and it would be incongruent with my personal values to support them. I understand completely that others have different opinions on the subject, but if I am to support a charity, I require that its cause be congruent with my values. If I'm going to support the front end, there must be a back-end that I can support as well. If the cause is somehow rooted in cruelty Wholesale MLB Jerseys From China , war, greed, or other scarcity thinking, I'm not going to water those roots.


The intention you put into your giving is more important than the particular means of giving. Give in a manner which makes you feel good Wholesale MLB Jerseys China , not guilty. And if you don't currently have a viable outlet for giving that aligns with your values and makes you feel good, then put out the intention for a new outlet for giving to come into your life.


Beyond Tithing


As I've driven myself to shed scarcity thinking, I eventually dropped the practice of tithing in favor of aligning my entire life with what I perceive to be the highest good of all. I realized that if I'm giving money to a worthy cause, then perhaps I'm also telling myself that my own life is inherently a less worthy cause. This isn't necessarily true of you Wholesale MLB Jerseys , but when I looked within I saw that it was true of me. I felt better about the 10% I was giving away than the 90% I was using myself. I knew I could do better than that.


Instead of tithing to "better" causes, I wanted my life to become a tithe-worthy cause of its own. It saddened me to feel that only 10% of my money was serving the greater good. Sure it's better than 0%, but why not 20% or 50% or even 100%? In order to reach those higher percentages
