Bob Burg who writes the Go Giver and the Go Giver Sells More tells this story in the tradition of the great parable that life should always be ‘how can I help you’ first. Without fail, the more you do and give to others without expectation of return, the more return you invariably get. Life is not and should not be a 50/50 proposition. That’s not boundless success. That’s tit for tat. The true winners are those who gladly share their influence for the betterment of others and in return better themselves not just financially…but more important, emotionally.

Hadn’t read the piece about blogging and social media making it more difficult to hide unethical and greedy business behavior, but agree and love that it does and that we are doing our part!

I appreciate the message of your piece, that all should be treated with kindness and respect. The legal profession would do well to heed the advice. I think it may be doing so.
