Giving: The Key to Getting What You Want

Many give credence to the theory "the more you give, the more you’ll get back," yet the intention behind this action is sometimes not what it should be. In this instance, the whole process can turn sour very quickly indeed.

Deepak Chopra points this out in his book, The Seven Spiritual Laws of Success. He states:

Anything that is of value in life only multiplies when it is given. That which doesn’t multiply through giving is neither worth giving or receiving. If through the act of giving, you feel like you have lost something, then the gift is not truly given and will not cause increase. Practicing the Law of Giving is actually very simple: if you want more joy, give it to others; if you want more love, learn to give love; if you want attention and appreciation, learn to give attention and appreciation; if you want material affluence, help others become materially affluent. In fact, the easiest way to get what you want, is to help others get what they want.

Always remember…it’s important to take care of you, but don’t forget to give to others, too!
