The more you are honestly giving to just give, the greater the return will be. But we are all human, so until we can genuinely give just to give, we can give to receive. The more we give, the easier it becomes, and the more we become true "givers." Fake it until its real, right? I think the return really matches your authenticity. The more you are honestly giving to just give, the greater the return will be.

As with many things, it comes down to our attitude of giving. Is it being done for marketing purposes or without any expectation except to help others. Both are good for different reasons. Each has different benefits. Mark,
You are right. As with many things, it comes down to our attitude of giving. Is it being done for marketing purposes or without any expectation except to help others. Both are good for different reasons. Each has different benefits.

I like those saying too. @ Misha - yes, I've also had the experience that giving without expectation is good for me.

Putting this one on my Tumblr too. What a wonderful post Mark, I particularly like Wayne Dyer and Zig Ziglar's sayings.

In the field of persuasion, both Kevin Hogan's Law of Reciprocity and Robert Cialdini's Rule of Reciprocation make a similar point. However it's not often emphasized that these rules work best when the gift has significant perceived value and it is unexpected. So you are right to point out that we should give freely without expectations. Nice points about the importance of giving before you receive.
