The Law of Success

The Law of Success

Give to Get. . .
by Napoleon Hill

Your most preciously valued possessions and your greatest powers are often necessarily invisible and intangible. No one can take them. You and you alone can share them.
The more you share, the more you will have.
Now if you doubt this, you can prove it to yourself by giving: a smile to everyone you meet; a kind word; a pleasant response; appreciation with warmth from the heart; cheer; encouragement; hope; honor, credit, and applause; good thoughts; evidence of love for your fellowmen; happiness; a prayer for the godless and the godly; and time for a worthy cause with eagerness.
If you do experiment by giving any one of the above, you will also prove to yourself what we have found is one of the most difficult principles to teach those who need it most: how to cause desirable actions within yourself. Until you do learn, you will fail to realize that what is left with you when you share it with others will multiply and grow; and what you withhold from others will diminish and decrease. There, share that which is good and desirable and withhold that which is bad and undesirable.

Share past memories w/ those who were a part of them!

Summer 2007
I was going through some files on my hard drive and found some pictures from a few years back. Even though it was only about 5 years previous, it seemed so much longer. I couldn't believe how much fun I had remincising on that time of my life and the friendship and memories created. I just had to share these with my friend Steph, who was in majority of the pictures. I knew that she would equally enjoy looking back at that time in our life and friendship. Steph and I not only were friends but we were co-workers at my brother's retail store. So of course seeing each other daily, we grew pretty close.
 Due to the miles between us and keeping up with life in itself, we haven't kept in touch as close as we both would like to but the friendship is definitely still there. After emailing the photos, she text me and so I replied with a phone call to which we talked for over an hour catching up. It's so good to have those friendships where you can take off exactly where you left.

Lesson: Take a lot of photos. Sometimes they'll seem useless but you'll be glad you took them. Our memories can't capture everything, thank goodness technology invented cameras to help our memories with that. When you go through phtoos, make sure to include the others included in those photos. I can bet those individuals will appreciate those fond memories just as much as you did.
