Change Your Life In 60 Seconds!

Are you a giver or a taker? Let's start with talking about the "giver" in you. You may feel as though you don't have anything to give. Or anything left to give. You work hard all year long, sometimes to the point of wondering if you're the only giver you know. So you may think it's time for someone else to do the giving. And you may be right, but before you check out on the idea, stop to think about this. Giving has life! Giving builds momentum! Giving makes you a positive link in the chain of life. So, you wanna "get" a little more,,,start giving, here are 3 ways to change your life in the next 60 seconds...forever:

1. Give of your talent. Share your strengths with those around you. What do you do well? Forget your weaknesses and let your talents and abilities touch others. It will build you up and you will shine.
2. Give of your knowledge. Teach those around you something they didn't already know, make a positive difference in their life and you will win them over for life. This gives you personal power, not for controlling others, but for reigning over yourself, to become the person you were meant to be and a person you like.
3. Give of your resources. No one is a know-it-all, we had to get it (whatever "it" is) some- where. Someone once said there are no new ideas. And that's okay, if it works for you, you own it. Share your resources, you'll be appreciated...and a new resource for someone in need.

Look for others in need of what you have, and share it. It could be your warmth, your smile, your attitude, your leadership, your encouragement, your relationship, your example or your money. You can't give it all away, no matter how hard you try, because more of it will come back. And I assure you, if your goal is to be great, remember this. Greatness is not power, wealth, fame, beauty or talent. Greatness is not found in possessions, power, position or prestige. It is discovered in goodness, humility, service and character.

So, what's so great about being a giver? Givers gain. You can't lose.
