Unfortunately, joy can be overshadowed if help is not provided to someone who needs it. Often scammers and lazy people ask for money or things, not wanting to work. There are several principles that should be followed in order to avoid such a situation.
Instruction manual
1
Determine what kind of help you are willing to provide to people. Your help can be expressed in various forms. For example, Alfred Nobel instituted a prize that is awarded to the best scientists and citizens in several fields of activity. The poor scientists also received the Nobel Prize, for whom it was a great blessing. Some people prefer to help others not with money or material resources, but with their time. For example, you can visit the disabled, read books with them. Similarly, you can choose special people or special circumstances in which your help will be provided.

Decide on the timing of your assistance. You can make a whole plan for years to come. In this regard, write down what number you will separate part of the money, time or other resources. A written plan will help you not to recede from the goal and not to forget about good intentions. Indeed, the intentions of many people never turn into real actions.

Think about whether your help will be a secret or vice versa, others should know about it. Some enterprises build playgrounds, sports facilities, and then they talk about it everywhere, creating their own image. For this they are condemned in private conversations. But if the directors of these companies did not have image motives, perhaps assistance would not have been provided to anyone at all. If it weren’t for the Nobel Prize, most people in this world would never know that Nobel once lived. Define your motives. If you want to "get a reward here and now, " so do it. If you prefer no one to know about your help, do so. In any case, let your help make someone lighter and lighter on the earth.

Follow your plan year after year.
note
Help may be planned, or it may be spontaneous. Every minute someone needs an operation for which there is no money. There are always people around us who need help to carry a heavy bag. Be prepared for unexpected situations if your heart is disposed to do good.
