The primary goal of Expert Giver Groups is to express unconditional love and forgiveness in our lives. 

Our instinctual drives for sex and financial security, although necessary for survival, cause selfish choices that justify neglecting and harming ourselves and others.

That keeps us depressed, restless, and discontented. 

Our instinctual survival-based goals are to remain selfish, unforgiving, and fearful. 

In order to find true happiness, peace, and joy in this life, we must overcome our selfish instincts by expressing unconditional love and forgiveness.

Self-satisfaction, pleasure, fleeting drug highs, and accumulated possessions do not give us the happiness, peace, and joy we all seek. 

We only experience those feelings by unconditionally loving and forgiving others.

Today, we are becoming more and more divided, separated, and isolated, and therefore need unity with each other more than ever. 

Many of us do not have the kind of genuine loving connections that we all long for. 

We want to connect with others, but don’t know how or where to do it. 

Expert Giver Groups provide a way for people to come together so they can develop humility, accountability, forgiveness, and unconditional giving.

Expert Giver Groups are open to all people, regardless of age, race, culture, gender, socioeconomic status, religion, or political affiliation.

Expert Giver Groups involve a 7-step process:

Step 1: Finding a Mentor in the Group. Admit that you need help managing your instinctual drives, and are willing to become humble and teachable, and to seek humility by finding a mentor in an Expert Giver Group and by committing to being honest and accountable to that person.

Step 2: Completing Your Personal Inventories. Write down four different personal inventories: (a) Resentments; (b) Relationships; (c) Fears; and (d) Character Defects.

Step 3: Reviewing All Four of Your Inventories with Your Mentor. Once you complete all four inventories in Step 2, arrange a meeting with your mentor to humbly and honestly go over all the lists together, being open to feedback that helps you to see things that you could not see on your own.

Step 4: Making a List of Amends and Reviewing It with Your Mentor. Make a list of amends that you owe to others, and review the list with your mentor.

Step 5: Making Your Amends. After you review with your mentor which amends to make and how to make them, start making those amends.

Step 6: Continue Taking Your Personal Inventory and Promptly Admit When You Are Wrong. Continue reviewing your resentments, intimate relationships, fears, and character defects—promptly admitting when you are wrong, and making amends immediately when you cause harm to others.

Step 7: Mentoring Others. Offer to become a mentor for others who are willing to go through the above steps. Be as unconditionally giving as you can in service to others. Be open to starting an Expert Giver Group in your area.

After going through the 7 Steps with the help of your mentor, you will start to experience a freedom and peace that you had not previously known. 

You will have a new perspective on life. 

Self-pity will fade away. 

Your desire to help others will grow, and selfishness will begin to fade and be less of a challenge. 

You will become less interested in selfish activities, and more interested in helping others. 

Your fear of people and economic insecurity will leave you. 

You will have new meaning and purpose in your life that you didn’t have before. 

You will experience a level of happiness, joy, wisdom, and peace previously unknown to you.

Expert Giver Groups are fellowships of men and women who share their experiences, strengths, and hopes with each other with honesty, open-mindedness, humility, and a willingness to become less selfish, striving to live by the Golden Rule. 

Virtually every society has some variation of the Golden Rule, whether it is expressed as “Do unto others as you would have others do unto you,” or “What you do not wish for yourself, do not wish for others,” or simply “Love your neighbor as yourself.” 

There are no dues or fees for membership in Expert Giver Groups.

Each Expert Giver Group is self-supporting through the contributions of its participants. 

Please give Expert Giver Groups a chance to change your life for the better, enabling you to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others. 

True purpose and meaning in life are within reach and are not obtained or satisfied by chasing selfish objectives.
