Get bUoyed Up! [Reaping By Giving]

 Everyone is always looking for the harvest.  Expectation to receive is a good thing.  We all tend to think that reward and overflow should come our way at some point in our lives. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. We should all dream and think big especially when we anticipate gain for ourselves.  After all, if others are on the receiving and blessing end, why can't we be...….right?  It may appear to you that every time you turn around it seems as if others are benefiting in life in some shape, form or fashion. If we can be candid, you may even feel like you are more deserving of a positive return than they are and yet your harvest is in a drought.  Let's examine your situation a little closer, you may need to ask yourself, what am I doing to contribute to or suppress a harvest or positive return in my life? Sometimes it’s our own actions or inactions that prevent us from obtaining the harvest we feel we deserve.  As you look at other people and how they are rewarded, the truth is, you really don't know what's going on in their lives. Remember, you are seeing things from an outside perspective. We don't know the suffrage they may have encountered.   We don't know the grind or the work ethic they put forth every day. Their experiences may be far worse or better than yours.  In order to help you improve your chances of minimizing or eliminating your drought, I would like to give you a little nugget of wisdom that may have a positive impact on your harvest.  First though, you need to remove your focus off the harvest of others and what they are achieving and receiving and put that energy into your own campaign for success.   If you redirect your energy, you create more attention toward your own purpose, goals and ideas. Once your focus is realigned, start giving.  The surest way to receive is through the power of giving. Reaping by giving has long been the formula for a blessed life. If you want a positive return, help someone else by giving, especially if you are expecting something in consideration of your own efforts. It doesn't always have to be monetarily either. One of the best resources that we all have to give is our time.  So sow into your own life by giving to others and watch the seeds you plant grow and sprout back to you a hundredfold.
