Strengthening Relationships- Practicing Charity

I have been having fun making charity a game that I can put into practice.
I am trying to strengthen my relationships with my children by serving them more in these areas.
I thought I would share it to help myself and others with a measurable idea.

I set it up like a bank account.
(A relationship or emotional bank account)
I actually downloaded an app to do the tallying for me
(It is called Daily Expenses)

daily INCOME= +1 for any act in these categories:
*Refrain from Criticizing
*Look for the Positive
*Find ways to Help
*Encourage
*Pray for
*Verbally Express Love
*Show Love through Actions

daily EXPENSES= -4 for any act in these categories:
-Criticize
-Judge
-Speak Unkindly
-Force
-Hurt
-Impatience
-Not Listen/Ignore (uncaring)
-Selfish (make others wait)
-Stingy (refuse to share)
-Consequence annoying behavior
-Gossip (speak unkindly about)

The daily total with income as 1 and expense as 4 keeps me striving for 80% or better each day.
It is hard work, but it is so helpful in changing my nature- especially as a leader.
It helps me increase my service, which wins hearts, and opens doors for leading.

I am a goal setter. I noticed that loving and serving others has to constantly be my #1 goal.
If I have any other goal in front of that, I treat people badly.
My mom's favorite saying is "People First, Things Second."
This is a way to put people first.

(I got the income category from Personal Progress)
