An altruist is a person who seeks to satisfy the needs of other people, sometimes even to the detriment of his own interests. Such selfless individuals forget about themselves when someone needs help.
Instruction manual

Understand that an altruistic worldview elevates a person. The good deeds that he does for the sake of others help him to improve as individuals. Such a humane approach to communicating with others helps to feel like a strong, confident person. Altruism helps a person to reach her potential, develop talents and abilities, become more spiritual.

One obvious way to become an altruist is through charity. Start worrying about the fate of those people who are not very lucky in life. Contact the help services for poor and large families, orphanages, nursing homes and disabled people. Find out how you can help. Your material or moral support can save a person or brighten up his existence. Do not forget about animals. Take care of homeless cats and dogs, help shelters and foundations.
3
Take care of your family members. Show respect for the older generation. Sometimes you need to postpone your own affairs, but help your parents. Remember that there was a time when they gave you all the energy and time. Now you have to worry about them. If someone from your family needs help, support, do everything possible to correct the situation.
4
Make gifts to other people more often - about and spontaneous. This display of generosity and attention towards others will help you become a real altruist. It is important not to pay off your sins with the help of presentations for family, friends and colleagues, but to show your sympathy from the heart. Think about the fact that a bouquet of flowers, a long-awaited thing or an unusual surprise will lift another person's mood. If this thought warms you, you are on the right track.
5
Try to always help those who ask for your advice. True altruists readily advise fellow novices on issues in which they themselves are experts. Learn to listen to a friend at a time when he is not easy, and sympathize with him. Do not wait for someone from your family to contact you for help if you see that a person is ill. Be the first to offer your services.
6
Be attentive to others. Be tactful; don't touch other people with inappropriate questions or evil jokes. If you decide to be an altruist, you need to become a cheerful, positive person, next to whom everyone is calm and comfortable. Think about whether you are causing any inconvenience to anyone. A true altruist will never be impolite, rude or inattentive.
