From Leila Mulla

New York Cares volunteers come from all walks of life, but have one thing in common – a passion for making a difference. The organization was founded by a group of friends who wanted to make a difference amidst the serious social issues the city had faced since the late 1980’s. Today, New York Cares is the city’s largest volunteer organization, implementing volunteer programs for 1,200 nonprofits, city agencies, and public schools.

Leila Mulla on the Link Between Staying Positive and Finding True Love

Leila Mulla, an advocate of positivity, gives you yet another reason to banish negative thoughts, vibes, and emotions from your system and replace them with positive ones: living positively can help you find true love.


Finding true love has been a lifelong quest for most single people. They literally exhaust all possible means they have, hoping to find that one special person who will stand by them through thick and thin, for the rest of their lives. Embracing a life filled with positivity can take you one step closer to finding true love, and it does not require a lot of effort, nor will it cost you anything. It has no drawbacks, and offers a multitude of benefits.


Like Leila Mulla, you can choose to focus on the positive traits of another person, instead of dwelling on his/her faults and shortcomings. Finding true love takes a great deal of acceptance of, patience for, and tolerance for the people around you. By doing so, you open yourself to a lot of possible relationships with other people, because you are not limiting yourself to people who are near-perfect. It also helps to accept that nobody is perfect – for Mulla, only God is perfect. Doing so ensures that you will not have delusions of grandeur about the people you consider to have relationships with. Also, like Mulla, you can choose to pay other people compliments – not only are they great conversation starters, but also quick pick-me-uppers that make others feel good about themselves.
