being a listener will give the satisfaction of knowing that you've helped someone, it gives that good feeling and you also may gain some experience for later in life.

On 7 Cups you get to interact with REAL people with REAL issues. The listener may start showing compassion to themselves as well, after demonstrating love to the member.
If you enjoy helping others, it's the perfect opportunity with great training and appreciation. You can also receive genuine certificates for your help.
Because there is many people in this world who needs help and they don't necessarily have someone to talk to .. so they hope to find someone to listen to them without judging them ..
To be fortunate enough & blessed in our own lives, it's time to give back to our community, and serve as a supportive role, to empower others who may need help - after all, we've all gone through hard times before, and didn't we all have the thought cross our minds that "I wish someone would just listen to what I have to say"?
You should be a listener because nothing helps you feel better like helping other people who have been through the same situations as you.
As a listener who only joined a few hours ago, I have already helped almost a dozen people. It feels so good knowing that I have made someone smile and accept my advice. It's a blessing when people reach out for your help. Become a listener, you won't regret it.
being a 7cups listener is a great chance to help people in need and to really make a difference in their lives it's an amazing experience that can help you meet new friends and make an impact for those who need it most

The fact that your exploring this site says a lot about you! You love to help and its nice be an ear to someone who may not have access to it elsewhere! You will be able to make someone happy and give some hope as well.
As a 7Cups listener, I can honestly say that this opportunity is wonderful. Where I live, volunteering is difficult to say the least. This website allows me to reach out and positively impact peoples lives without ever leaving my house.
Not only will you help others, you'll help yourself too. I've become so much happier and my communication is improving as well.
Because you've been listened to many times and this is the time to reciprocate :) we are all humans and well help each other in hard times.
You get to help the others and you feel better about yourself! And it feels the best when you get to help someone.

I became a 7Cups listener because I wanted to lend an ear and share the same happiness and peace that this site brought me. I wanted to in a way, "give back" to 7Cups and I'm very happy I did :)
Because the world needs some superheroes!
You can become a superhero if you helped someone, If you changed the world with putting a seed of hope in the heart of someone asking for help.
I have already passed the test to be a 7cup listener, and so far I have had many good reviews from the people I have spoken with.

I should be a 7cups listener because I know in this world there are many people that need help or advice to face their life problems. Even someone who have people around them facing difficult times alone because people nowadays rarely have free time to just sit and be a listener. I experience it myself and I know that feeling when you have nobody to talk to. And that's the reason why I should be a 7cups listener, to make a change in this world.

Listeners use their experience to make someone feel better. That would be the best gift one could give or receive...
If you like helping people, especially if you have a passion for it, it's worth it. Empathy can help a person tremendously.

If you like listening to people's stories and provide some solidarity you must join 7cups as a listener.
Not only is it rewarding to know that you've helped others, but it's always a time where we can think about others and get our minds off of our own struggles. It's a healthy break. Sometimes, by helping others, we're lucky enough to be able to somehow manage to help ourselves. Don't ask me how, but it really does work.
You should be a 7 cups listener because even though it can be challenging at times, hearing other people's problems at times makes you realize your own are not as big and helping others get through there tough places can lift your spirits as well!
You should be a 7Cups listener because it's always good to help others. I feel like if you've gone through things and have come out a stronger person, it's best to share your story, and to help others overcome their struggles as well.

Gives you the opportunity to grow, learn about yourself, learn new skills, and most importantly, help people who are struggling!
Being a 7Cups listener can be beneficial for both the listener and the speaker. The speaker can be encouraged to know that someone is taking time out of their day to listen to their concerns and the listener is able to reach out to someone and need and lend a supportive ear- something many people need.
