The response to my “Kirk Loves You” post from the other day (http://blog.mrfire.com/health/kirk-loves-you/) has been great.

We raised just under $3,000 for the $15,000 Quadriciser machine that Kirk needs to begin to retrain his body and mind so he can have some movement.

And that $3,000 came despite problems with the Paypal buttons on his site at www.amazingkirk.com (They’ve since been fixed.)

But I decided it’s too important for Kirk to wait for the machine, so I wrote a check today for the full $15,000.

I’m not saying this to brag, but to offer a lesson or two for you:

I learned a long time ago that the more successful I am, the more I can help others, like my family, friends, good causes, or even people I don’t know, like little Kirk.

Too many people fear success. I was there once, too. But when I realized that the more I create wealth in my life, the more I can help myself and others, that fear dissolved.

I also learned another secret long ago:

I wrote about this in my book, The Greatest Money-Making Secret In History. The basic message is this: give whatever you want to get.

If you want money, give money.

If you want love, give love.

It seems to be a karmic secret or law: give to receive.

Unless you block the receiving, it works every time.

In fact, shortly after I decided to write the check for $15,000, I received twice that in unexpected income.

That’s how this law works.

My gift to Kirk is also my gift to me.

When you get these lessons, prosperity and much more will come your way at an accelerated pace.

In fact, I was just in the hot tub, doing my daily meditative gratitude session. As I thought of Kirk finally getting this machine — one his mother has wanted for him for years — I began to cry.

I realized that life is truly beautiful.

But what makes it beautiful is you and me, and what we do.

I really do look forward to shaking Kirk’s hand one day.

Ao Akua,

Joe

    It feels amazing helping out children like that who need help. I just donated some money – it’s a great way to start off the day :).

    Even though you’re a wonderful person, and fulfilled Kirks immediate need, will the website still be available for people to help them out? I’m sure there are LOTS of other things they could benefit from with the help of a little extra cash. Giving just makes you feel all soft and woozy inside. In a good way!

    Thank you for living, being, thinking, and feeling from the Truth of what we all are and for writing about it showing the way. The love, generosity, gratefulnesss, compassion that is inside of you and giving it away, reminds me of Source and what Source continually is.

    😀 1 day after I donated to this compelling boys wonderful cause I get a call from my boss giving me a 10% raise out of no where. Considering my salary grade and the fact that we are in a business tied to the slow housing market make it quite the unexpected miracle… apparently the universal bank thought it was time for me to cash out all of the small deposits I’ve been putting out there lately 🙂

    Joe you are a god sent! My next stop will be to get you a amazon certificate!

    Hi Joe!

    Hope you’ve been enjoying all the July rain in Wimberly. I want to say thank you for publishing my words in Zero Limits in the “The Evidence” chapter (page 95-97). I received my copy just shortly after my birthday and it’s the best gift I’ve received in many years. Even though Hooponopono is “my way” I don’t talk much about it on my own blog http://yourownbestgood.com , but I was moved write a long post about it and promote Zero Limits as well with a nice big JPG.

    After reading this post of yours I felt inspired to share with you and others that you give in so many ways to so many people.

    Bruce, I’d love to read your write up on your blog but it’s saying I need to log in. Can anyone read it please? 😳

    I agree Joe is wonderful, did anyone hear all the people last night on the Teleseminar sending him tonnes of love :mrgreen: It was so lovely and even though it was 2am in the Uk, the energy kept me wide awake 😀
