They are the three universal reasons for working.<ol><li>Survive—to meet your basic living needs.(most people )</li><li>Save—to go beyond your basic needs and expand your life.( A smaller number)</li><li>Serve—to make a contribution to the world around you.(rare few who are truly successful—not just financially, but genuinely successful in all aspects of their lives)</li></ol>

Survive, save and serve

<ul><li>Appearances can be deceiving.</li><li>It‘s not about seeing. It‘s about doing.</li><li>It‘s not just a question of their value. It‘s a question of impact.</li><li>If you want more success, find a way to serve more people. It‘s that simple.</li><li>Your compensation is directly proportional to how many lives you touch.</li></ul>

Doing > Seeing

<ul><li>All the great fortunes in the world have been created by men and women who had a greater passion for what they were giving–their product, service or idea than for what they were getting.</li><li>Personal wealth is the by-product of making the world a better place.</li><li>Everyone likes to be appreciated.</li><li>People will do business with and refer business to those people they know, like and trust.</li></ul>

Give,give,give

<ul><li>If you need money, add value. And if you need a lot of money, add a lot of value.</li><li>Reaching any goal you set takes ten percent specific knowledge or technical skills (ten percent, max). The other ninety-plus percent is people skills.</li><li>What you focus on is what you get.</li><li>Ultimately, the world treats you more or less the way you expect to be treated.</li></ul>

Authenticity

THE LAW OF VALUEYour true worth is determined by how much more you give in value than you take in payment.THE LAW OF COMPENSATIONYour income is determined by how many people you serve and how well you serve them.THE LAW OF INFLUENCEYour influence is determined by how abundantly you place other people’s interests first.THE LAW OF AUTHENTICITYThe most valuable gift you have to offer is yourself. THE LAW OF RECEPTIVITY The key to effective giving is to stay open to receiving.

THE FIVE LAWS OF STRATOSPHERIC SUCCESS 

<ul><li><a href="https://deepstash.com/idea/203934/reciprocity">You give, give, give. Why? Because It‘s not a strategy, it‘s a way of life. And when you do, then very, very profitable things begin to happen.</a></li><li>In fact, most people just laugh when they hear that the secret to success is giving. ―Then again, most people are nowhere near as successful as they wish they were.</li><li>It never hurts to be kind to people.</li><li>Love to give. That‘s why they‘re attractive. Givers attract.</li></ul>

The Go-Giver

<ul><li>Your business will succeed when you find out what others want and try to satisfy their demands. Put concisely, you need to stop being a go-getter and start being a go-giver.</li><li>Sometimes you feel foolish, even look foolish, but do the thing anyway....</li><li>What‘s inside that makes you beautiful, not the wrapping.</li><li>Everybody can be successful because anybody can give.</li></ul>

Stop Being A Go-getter

<ul><li>The only winning proposition is one hundred percent. Make your win about the other person, go after what (s)he wants. Forget win-win — focus on the other person’s win.(especially in relationships)</li><li>Because if you place the other person‘s interests first, your interests will always be taken care of Always.</li></ul>

Fifty-fifty‘s a losing proposition. 

<ul><li>Good people give and don‘t think of receiving.</li><li>Receiving is the natural result of giving.</li><li>The secret to getting is giving. And the secret to giving is making yourself open to receiving.</li><li>Being broke and being rich are both decisions.</li></ul>
