Nathan and Speaker A argue that worrying about picking the wrong charity keeps people from giving at all. They describe their first donation to Feed My Starving Children in Arizona and explain why motivation peaks are brief and should be seized immediately, not delayed by research paralysis.
You know, people have all sorts of questions before they get into charitable worlds. Like, you know, aren't there bad charities out there? I don't want to waste my time and money and those kinds of things.
Every dollar is going to the actual people in need. There's always those questions.
Absolutely. And I'd love to have those conversations with you because at the end of the day, those are the things I think that hold us back when we're so busy that we don't know if there's space. Remember, we only go through very short amount of times with high levels of motivation. So when you are feeling motivated to do something like this, this is something to act on. Our first charity, Nathan, was Feed My Starving Children in, in Arizona.
I was gonna ask you to explain that a little bit about how we got together with them and what that looked like, because I think I was in Alaska during that time.
And so very similar to what you said regarding the Parkinson's charity that you guys were sponsoring at Pinnacle, I got together with the team and just, and it was one of those where it's like, we should, we should support a charity. It wasn't coming from this, like, I'm a good guy and I wanna help others. It was like, we have a business, we should probably do something with charity. Right. You know, that's how the whole thing started.
