Have you ever heard the “tongue in cheek” statement – Do to others before they do to you? Well, that’s not exactly the best approach to life! ‘If you help other people get what they want first, then they will help you. By helping others first, you add value to them. If you add value to people, you’ll get value returned in your life.’ (J.Maxwell) You get much better returns for your efforts if you help others first BEFORE expecting help from them. It’s the simple natural law of planting and harvesting. What are you planting today?
