Gifting

Remember, you are always transacting for help or cash.

This blog is help to those who read it. Some readers pay me cash to advertise, consult or participate in their companies. Others pay me with equitable exchanges of help.

Gifting is a form of money or help. It rewards people for their participation in your ventures and life. It is smart as it adds value to those who wish to transact with you.

But it is also sometimes without the need for compensation or reciprocity.

A gifts intent is a voluntary act which does not require anything in return. Even though it involves possibly a social expectation of a return in the form of admiration, prestige or power, a gift is meant to be free.

The term gift can refer to anything that makes the other happier or less sad, especially as a favor, including forgiveness, generosity and kindness...and these are the most precious gifts of all.

Happy Holidays, I wish you great joy.
