Give A Little To Get A Little

The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little extra. - Jimmy Johnson

We often get so stuck on what we stand to gain in life that we forget the true power of giving. Not giving in just a philanthropic sense, but giving as in contributing something of value to the world in general.

This universe is set up with the most effective compensation program I’ve ever seen. What you put out, you get back. What you hold back, you lose. Think of the universe like a huge mirror that simply reflects back to you whatever you think, feel and do.

If you try to take from others, you take from yourself (or others will take from you). If you try to give true value to others, you will receive great value from others and often from unexpected sources too!

If you want to take your progress to the next level, begin thinking about ways you can use this big mirror to create more opportunities for growth and abundance for others, and you will also be creating the same for yourself. Begin thinking about ways you can add something meaningful to the lives of others, rather than focusing on what you stand to gain from others.

Even more importantly, think about how you can take your efforts to the next level. Don’t just do something halfheartedly and call it good – give it your absolute BEST effort and watch how dramatically that alters your results. No matter what you’re doing, giving it half your attention or half your effort will give you half the results you could have received.

It’s all about the energy you put forth while engaged in any activity. If you want to get a little, give a little. If you want to get a lot, give a lot. Put the same amount of focus and effort into washing the car as you would while writing a poetic masterpiece.

Put the same amount of effort into raising money for the needy as you would while earning money for yourself. Strive for excellence in everything you do and then stand back in shock and awe as the universe gives you a standing ovation that rains blessings down upon you.
