ย On giving: โThe best way to receive is to give. There is a natural balance to everything in life. Itโs important to keep this in mind if we hope to โget thingsโ from other people. If we constantly ask for things and we donโt give anything in return, the chances of us continuing to get things are reduced. We donโt always have to reciprocate at the same level we receive, nor with the same things, but we do need to give something back. Given the natural balance, if a person feels that they are always giving but receiving nothing in return, they will attempt to rectify the balance.โ
ย If you apply the wisdom in this book to your life, you are sure to see many benefits, but the currencies in play may be patience, empathy and love rather than those of the material kind.ย
