To have an attitude of sharing, sharing what you have with others. If you have lots of stuff, to share it with those who do not, if you know something others do not, to share this information you have with another to better their lives, yes, if we eat from the Tree of Knowledge we can no longer stay in The Garden of Eden, so is it actually better if we do not know? To "know" is the verb of the noun of Knowledge, to give someone information, knowledge, that would better not worsen their lives.
To share what you have, if you have enough food for two, to keep one plate and give the second plate to someone else. If you have two coins, give one away and keep one for yourself.
The Law is to give 10% of your income away to the poor. And to leave the fallen grapes on the ground in the vineyard for the poor to pick them up and receive them. To keep 1/10 of your farmland field for the poor so they have this land where food is grown just for them.
If what you have is money coming in, to donate this money as charity instead of hoarding it all to yourself. Not to live your life as a greedy miser who gives nothing he has to anyone. If you receive more than you need, to give this excess to someone who has received nothing. When you are counting your coins, to give some away.
Picking a good cause and donating to this cause.
Giving away what you have to someone who does not have it, and doing this anonymously to not receive a reward for yourself, to show someone compassion and not to do it with selfish intent, to give away more than 10%, to give of yourself to another who would benefit.
To give understanding, compassion, unconditional love, and loving-kindness, in addition to more than the 10% to someone who could grow like a green plant and then be of a benefit to the world.
To plant a seed, water it, and then harvest the food, to then have lots of food with lots of love.
