We\u2019ve all heard the saying \u201cit is better to give than receive\u201d. But, when considering what truly makes someone successful in life, this saying is the foundation of real success. This is true for personal and professional success.<\/p>\n
Do Good and Good Will Come to You<\/p>\n
In a previous blog<\/a><\/u> we discussed the Law of Attraction<\/em> and the importance of \u201cminding your mind\u201d. In other words, if you think about failure, you will attract failure. The same can be said for giving back. If you want success in life, then you must help others to succeed. Sounds simple, right? The good news is that you will help your well-being and bolster your professional success.<\/p>\n People can achieve wealth and influence by putting people down, playing dirty and stepping on others to \u201cget ahead\u201d in life.

There won\u2019t be a helping hand, that\u2019s for sure.<\/p>\n If all you have that makes you successful is wealth and power, will you really enjoy it anyway if peers, colleagues and the random stranger hate and despise you? I don\u2019t think so. Still not convinced? Show gratitude<\/a><\/u> to a stranger today and note how you feel. Chances are you will feel good and the person you helped will feel good too, subconsciously causing them to \u201cpay it forward\u201d, making another person feel good, etc.<\/p>\n Giving back helps us realize a purposeful life that goes beyond just feeling warm and fuzzy; there are proven physical health benefits as well, including increased longevity according to a Forbes<\/a><\/u> article.<\/p>\n From a professional viewpoint, giving back is often the key to moving forward toward goals because it provides opportunities to:<\/p>\n The most important thing to note is that you don\u2019t have to be flush with cash to start giving back. But be sure to start the sooner the better, because giving back is a sure-fire way to attract good things and nurture a healthy, happy well-being at the same time. Now that\u2019s a recipe for success, not just for you, but for everyone you encounter throughout life.<\/p>\n Timothy Dimoff\u2019s presentation Habits of Exceptionally Successful People <\/a><\/u>can help you gain insight into what it really takes to form lasting relationships through meaningful interactions with others.
