Making the final decision to run a marathon is quite a big deal, running a marathon is a serious personal challenge. You need to constantly find the motivation to keep going when others will probably recommend you give up.

Running a marathon is hard and the training sometimes is even harder.For most non-professional runners, like me, a marathon means months and months of preparation which require meticulous planning progressively longer runs.

If you have a busy agenda it will become increasingly complex to find the time of training within your daily activities.

I have learned that if you do not have a passion for what you are doing it's very hard to keep motivation high over time.

Running a marathon is a nice exercise to learn to break down what you need to do to overcome the obstacle into small steps. Literally, you can focus on one step at a time.

Once I got going, I grew to love it. It has been very nice to run in various cities around the world.

About 10 years have passed since JP Morgan and the Rockefeller Foundation coined the term, Impact Investing.



Since then, impact investments have taken a long and important journey. Today, they represent an effective tool to improve the socio-economic conditions of the communities, playing an important role in the collaboration between the public and private sectors.



From this point of view, Impact Investing can be considered a new frontier of sustainable finance and a real factor of change for the future of the world economy.



A new model of economy driven by a more harmonious logic of redistribution of wealth within the economic and social systems.



To better understand what we talk about when we talk about Impact Investing, it is good to refer to the definition Cambridge Associates and GIIN (Global Impact Investing Network) give of it: "They are investments made in companies, organizations and funds with the aim of generating a social or environmental impact that is measurable and favorable alongside, or in place of, a financial return."



The change of perspective is clear. No more searching for profit for its own sake or for generating other profitable activities. Rather, having a positive impact on the living conditions of a community.

All successful entrepreneurs, sooner or later, reach that point in life where they obtain what they want in life, fulfilling all their goals and aspirations, thanks to the hard work and effort and thanks to what they learned from the sector and environment they worked and lived in.

Loving what you do is the direct way to reach the top of the ladder of personal success; but also the people you meet along the way, the experiences you are lucky enough to have, and why not, also the challenges and hard times you encounter, are all essential elements that help you grow and help you fulfil yourself as a person, both in your professional and private life.

It is a cycle. What you give you receive. And what you receive, you want to give back again. You must be grateful for all that contributed to make you what you are today, good and bad things that forged you into the strong, fulfilled and happy individual you are right now.

Try to stop and think for a moment of all the experiences and persons that were important for you along the way. Can you recall anyone in particular that taught you a lesson that changed your life forever? Can you remember a specific job that gave you unique professional skills and know-how? Is it there a certain environment, place, that no matter what, always makes you happy? Who’s that persona that has always been there for you?

If you carefully think of it, what you are and achieved so far, is the result of the experiences and people you encountered in our life. The natural feeling for all this, is gratitude. No matter what happened, there will always be a person, a sector, an environment, a situation you will always be grateful for.

Think of all the future generations that like you, will find themselves in the same spot in life. Is it there something you would like to tell them to help achieve their goals, their dreams? Is it there something you wished somebody would have told you before?

Do you feel like doing something to express this gratitude? Why not give back to the sector now? You can make the difference!
There are concrete things you can do to give back to your sector and the environment that helped you. Ever thought of creating a common interest group, a round table where to sit with like-minded people and dream together for a better future in your sector? Events, fairs, sponsored social activities under the name of your industry, collective marketing initiatives… The possibilities are endless!

Giving back and launching yourself in new projects that can help others, will bring you great personal satisfaction as well!

Anyway, proof is in the pudding, and if you are finding yourself in this very same situation right now, wanting to offer something to who helped you so far and bring value to your sector, but don’t know where to start from, we are here to help you!

Help your sector’s tomorrow, start to give back now.
