LTC insider Chat, 02/2012, v.2 no.3

              The holidays are over so
let’s assess how it worked
out for you. I heard on an
advertisement “it is bet-ter
to receive than give.”
Most folks have heard
this said the other way
around, but think about it.
I don’t know about you,
but when I give, I usually
receive a greater return.
Whether it is an act of
kindness or helping get a
job accomplished or do-nating
for a charitable
cause, I always get a re-turn.
It may come in the
form of a warm fuzzy or a
sense of accomplishment
or knowing I made a day
better for someone or
helping create a success-ful
outcome or just know-ing
I did the right thing.
It might not come right
away, but you will know
when it happens. My good-ness,
sometimes I even hit
the jackpot and get a com-bination
of several in re-turn.
Has that happened to
you? Can you think of a
time you had to call on your
patience and understanding
to get to the right goal?
Have you had to reach way
down inside to make the
best decision? Can you
think of a time that the
road seemed to be full of
unending bumps, but then
you hit the super highway?
Are you saying to yourself
when an unpleasant situa-tion
occurs– “what goes
around comes around.” I
don’t think that necessarily
holds true for those who
treat others poorly. My
best response to that is
“they just don’t get it!”
It is better to receive than give???

They go through life un-aware
and missing the good
stuff. While they are busy
trying to criticize, give poor
customer service, complain
and create barriers to suc-cess,
they never get the big
bonanza of reaping the re-wards
of good deeds. It IS
better to receive!!! Are you
with me now? Do you see
how this works? If you
have a neat story to tell
about how you “received”
and how fun that was, send
to me. We will share in the
next edition of Insider
Chat. You may have also
heard about “pay it for-ward.”
It works the same.
Cool!!!!
In the Spirit,
