Giving and receiving are meant to work in tandem! Often people are better at giving -“it’s better to give than receive” mantra in our culture, but you really need to be good at BOTH. Being in harmony with this natural law will change your life for the better!

We must first give and then be open to receiving. As a business owner, you must first provide a solution, a product, or some value to your customer before you can receive the customer’s payment, input, or commitment.

You may not receive anything from a place, time, person, or situation where you initially gave but you WILL receive from somewhere else.

We must also be WILLING to receive so that we don’t get depleted and then are forced to stop giving. This is often a skill we must learn in our culture. We must replenish ourselves spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and physically.

Tips for better giving:

-Give your time, treasure, and talents to people, places, and situations who demonstrate real value and the ability to give and receive themselves

- Give in alignment with your personal values

-Give without expectation of return from the situation/place/person you are giving to

-Do not over give or give to people/places/situations that treat you poorly, or are not in harmony with your values, take advantage of you, manipulate you and lie to you, etc.

-When you give to those less fortunate, make sure it helps them create a better life versus just enabling more problems.

-Don’t not give to win love or favor or to manipulate or hold someone “hostage”;guilt and manipulation will stop abundance in every way

- Practice gratitude and FEEL that gratitude deep in your soul

Tips for better receiving:

-It’s GOOD and acceptable to receive! Let this heart and mindset change really help you grow!

- Be open to receiving all things- wealth, support, love, joy, fun, opportunities, etc and use it for good

- Receiving can come from ANYWHERE and ANYONE thru God’s provision and the Law of Supply

-Relax, have fun, don’t be so serious!

- Receive with gratefulness each day and give gratitude for all the good that is coming in the future!

-Lose the guilt! Guilt is a low energy destroyer of lives, relationships, wealth, and health

Which one is harder for you? Take some time to journal, think over, and pray about this. How can you be a better receiver? A better giver? Or maybe more balanced in how and where you give and receive.
