It is more blessed to give than to receive. - Jesus
Why do we give gifts? It's because it feels good. If you want to create a strong bond with others, make them feel good. An easy way to make others feel good it to ask for advice. Advice is a gift we can all give. Watch how quickly people light up when you ask genially for advice.
I was out with friends. I noticed one girl wasn't feeling good and staying out of the conversation. So I asked her for relationship advice 'I'm rubbish with girls. Can you help me out?' Suddenly she was in her element, offering advice and feeling great as I took note and learned from her. By offering her gift of knowledge to me, her life was given meaning.
How do you feel when others want your advice?
Task
1. What advice could others offer you?
2. Ask one person for their advice. Take notes.
3. Notice how they feel whilst giving advice
4. Act on their advice. Share with them your results.
5. Notice how they feel once you show them your results.
6. Notice how you feel, knowing you gave meaning to their lives.
