Give and Receive

This is one of the principles in the course that struck me.

For many of us, we approach the Law of Attraction with an expectation to receive.  We often forget that as we receive, it is necessary for us give something back.  This is important to keep energy flowing continuously.  The channel would otherwise be blocked and we would stop receiving.

This is obvious in many aspects of life - we work and thus we get money.  Working is giving your energy to something, and money is a form of energy which we receive.  If we don't work, we don't get paid.  Proctor also said something very meaningful about our attitudes to work.  "We should not work for money."  (Doesn't make sense?  I'll write about that in another entry).

To give, we can give in different terms, not just in money - we can give by providing attention, care, assistance, etc, etc.  I'm a believer of the "pay it forward" philosophy.  Charity is a great medium to pay forward a kind deed. Our gratitude and payback energy, I believe, will definitely reach the party we wish to thank.

As long as we give, we shall receive.
