Giving vs. Manipulation

By Mike Monahan, CEO and executive director of Life Success Seminars Inc.


Doing good for others can be one of the most rewarding selfish acts you can perform. Yes, selfish.


When you do good for others, you've missed the point if you aren't feeling good about it!


The only way you can go wrong is if you have hidden motives for giving. That's manipulation, not giving.


When you're trying to manipulate, you're the one who is going to be disappointed by the outcome. You might even feel like they have taken advantage of you.


The gift of giving is that you get to feel good while helping someone else. Win/win!
