austin-all-natural-dec.jpg I’m on the cover of the December issue of Austin All Natural magazine. I also have an original article inside it on giving. You can download it at www.austinallnatural.com Be sure to Digg this and to tell friends about it. Giving is not about getting, as the article explains, but when you give, you will certainly receive.

    That was a nice article. And I couldn’t agree with you more. My wife has a business based on organic giving, and the whole concept really creates a wonderful kind of feel good energy. We’re involved with people whose only reason for talking to us at all is because they want to give…and it just keeps happening more and more. How great is that?

    What perfect timing of your words and article right before the upcoming Holiday’s. Giving and Love is what it is all about. Give what You Can and Give with Joy and No Expectations. Thanks for sharing this link to the article, it’s a cause close to our hearts.

    Great article, Joe. The only true giving is giving because you want to give, with an open heart and absolutely no other agendas. Never give in order to also receive. Never give while secretly judging “the ones who can’t take care of themselves” as less than you. Give because you are moved to give, that’s all. Trust your intuition when to respond to a need and when not to. Krishnamurti was known to respond to children beggars in the streets of India in the most unpredictable way. At times he would reach in his pocket, give money and keep on walking, other times he would give money and stop to talk to the boy, and yet at other times he would hit a beggar with a stick and give him nothing. He had an innate knowing of when the help was needed and when he was being manipulated. He never explained his actions.
    In personal relationships too many people think in terms of give and take. I believe this can never work.True giving has nothing to do with keeping score. Instead, give 100% and take 0. And the other one does the same. Gives 100% and takes 0. Thus no one takes and everyone gives. This way of course, both people receive abbundantly.

    If Joe Vitale really knows The Secret or Zero Limit, he would be retired on a hot beach with beautiful women pampering him all around long time ago. But instead, he has to work hard as being mediocre by publishing a new book once every 6 months for which most them are unsuccessful and a very few slightly successful. So where is The Secret or Zero Limit? Is this the Secret or Zero Limit of how to be a mediocre writer or how to con people into believing that Joe Vitale knows the Real Secret or Zero Limit? *** This is my 3rd posting, Joe Vitale keep on deleting it****
