Generosity an Important Virtue of Life

Generosity

It’s a universal law – we have to give before we receive. We must plant the seeds before we reap the harvest. The more we sow, the more we reap. And in giving to others, we find ourselves blessed. The law works to give us back more than we have sown. The giver’s harvest is always full. There would be no advantage to be gained by sowing a field of wheat if the harvest did not return more than was sown. The best thing about giving of ourselves is that what we get is always better than what we give. The reaction is greater than the action. The man who will use his skill and constructive

imagination to see how much he can give for a dollar, instead of how little he can give for a dollar, is bound to succeed. Life sometimes gives you a second chance. You shouldn’t go through life with a catcher smit on both hands. You need to be able to throw something back. Goals The purpose of goals is to focus our attention. The mind will not reach toward achievement until it has clear objectives. The magic begins when we set goals. It is then that the switch is turned on, the current

begins to flow, and the power to accomplish becomes a reality. Do not set your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you. There is one quality which one must possess to win, and that is definiteness of purpose, the knowledge of what one wants, and a burning desire to possess it. Until input (thought) is linked to a goal (purpose) there can be no intelligent accomplishment. This one step – choosing a goal and sticking to it – changes everything. If you don’t know where you are going, any road will get you there. The world has the habit of making room for the man whose words and actions show that he knows where he is going. What an immense power over the life is the power of possessing distinct aims. The voice, the dress, the look, the very motions of a person, define and alter when he or she begins to live for a reason.
