I've come to learn that money is natural result of quality relationships and you build quality
relationships by helping others.
Value is simply making someone's life easier by informing them something new they
did not know was possible and could help them.
For example:
a) Sharing an idea, experience or thing that can benefit someone else.
b) Making a difference in someone's life no matter how small or big it may seem to you, it just may mean everything to someone else.
How do you add value to someone's life?
Find what people are complaining about. The answer may be so obvious to you
but that's you and not everyone is like you.
Consider it your gift but are you willing to share the gift?
If you genuinely have an interest to help others whether you make a profit or not,
then what you are communicating is that you don't care about the money --
you care about the person.
People will begin to like and trust you when you communicate your interest
to really help them not only because you want to help them
but also because you gave them something of value.
The Law of Reciprocity - Will you make it work for you?
Value doesn't always come back in the form of money at first but it is always
working for you whether it is building credibility for your reputation
or whether it is word-of-mouth referrals (the most powerful form of advertising --
that doesn't cost money!)
Nevertheless, you always feel good about what you do because
your intention was purely to make a difference in the life of that one person.
The Question I leave you with is this one:
Who do you have to BE to give value or to be of service to someone else?
