Step #7: Build Your Giving

BE GENEROUS WITH YOUR GIFTS, AND LOOK FOR OPPORTUNITIES TO SERVE

Look for opportunities to share your gifts with others, and help others move forward with their gifts and goals as well. Genuine generosity brings out the best in all of us, and it is one of the best ways to connect with others and to draw others towards you.

WHAT YOU GIVE TO OTHERS TENDS TO COME BACK TO YOU

"Your influence is determined by how abundantly you place other people's interests first."

- Bob Burg, Author of "The Go-Giver"

In my experience when you sincerely look for opportunities to serve others and help them with their goals and dreams, unexpected doors of opportunity can open up for you.

It’s important to serve with an honest heart, and not because you’re trying to get something from someone, or get your foot in the door with a particular relationship or opportunity. Look for opportunities to serve without ulterior motives, and find the joy of helping others in their journey.

HELP OTHERS IN THEIR GOALS AND THEIR JOURNEY

"People will do business with and refer business to those people they know, like and trust."

- Bob Burg, Author of "The Go-Giver"

This quote is so very true! People want to do business with people who they know, like and trust. This is also true with creative projects. People LOVE to be creative with other people they know, like and trust! Especially in creative spaces, people want to collaborate with people they feel safe with.

When people feel that you genuinely want them to be successful, just like you want to be successful in your own endeavors, they are more likely to open doors for you. Help them find solutions to their problems or obstacles, and it's amazing how you might start finding solutions to yours!
