one of the lessons in life that people need to understand is that you have to give first before you can receive.
nobody owes you anything but we are social animals and we want to be around positive energy
this flows through to lesson two
'the rich get richer and the poor get poorer"
an interesting study was done in the USA with homeless people.
most homeless people had signs saying
"ex-veteran"
"mother of 6 kids"
"unemployed"
or they would surround themselves with hungry cats and dogs.
the message is clear
"me,me,me and my sad little story".
and such signs on average earnt about 20 to 30 dollars a day.
But what could be a better sign
What sort of sign would not be "pure taker mentality"
what sign would be from a "higher place" then this need to "get something for me,me,me".
so some social engineers got people to hold up a sign that earnt , on average 5 x as much (100 to 150 a day).
and that sign said
"if you only give once a month and you've already given to someone, i thank you and ask you to remember me next month".
when we stop being takers and we contribute gratitude and good positive emotions into the universe. the universe will give back.
