I choose to be a listener to try and help others by being the person I needed when I was growing up.

Because it can help you. It is something has should not be taken for granted and can be a difficult and taxing job but it is the most fulfilling experience I have ever had. Not only does it help others because they have someone to talk to it helps you because you feel good helping new people, you learn new things, and gain new experiences and characteristics from being a 7 cups listener. It is a help help situation!

Being a 7Cups listener is an immensely rewarding experience..
Firstly, as humans, we all know what it feels like to be down in the dumps and we all know how much we would value a kind word and an empathetic ear while we are going through such a phase in our lives.. It surely makes another person's day when they feel like someone cares about what they are going through..
Secondly, as a listener, one gets to learn a lot about human nature.. What drives people.. What influences them positively, as well as negatively.. How each individual has their own set of values and hopes and dreams and how one can learn to accept and respect these differences and also be able to appreciate that one thing which binds us all together - the human connection..
Thirdly, it helps one understand themselves better and grow as individuals by broadening their perspective and ability to empathize and also by instilling self-confidence..

Well, members get help, but listeners provide help! You can still go into your MEMBER account and get help. You'll probably remain a listener fourths most part.

Well, if you are seriously considering being a 7Cups listener, I think you should go into it because there is no greater feeling than helping another. It can be really difficult for people to seek out help and as a listener, you may be the first line of help for a caller. You may be the person that puts a smile on their face for the first time in days, weeks or even months. It's worth it and very rewarding.

7Cups has a really great system for listeners that ensures the safety of both chatter and listener. The chance to try and help others through difficult times is a precious one, and the happiness you get from a successful conversation is very heartwarming. Everybody wins:)

You would help other people and that would spread good. Helping other people is a good way to feel good about yourself too.

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.
