Solve For Relations In A Transactional World

It felt counterintuitive... giving something with no receipt.
Not only that, but no linear repayment structure in sight.

That's not how business is done... so I thought.

A conditioning I adopted as a child was that you must always receive something when you give.
... and that if it wasn't a fair and equitable trade it would inhibit you from creative the life you envision for yourself.

As I write this I can still feel threads of this belief coursing through my veins...
... yet I now recognize this opposes every successful recurring business venture I've ever done.

It's one thing to sell a something or do a deal once; but creating lasting partnerships is something different entirely.

"Never sell a ticket they wouldn't purchase again." - Jo Koy

To flip the script, you must reprogram yourself to think, act and feel abundant (easier said than done).
*Reflect back on the last 24 hours... how many times did you 'give' something that wasn't reciprocated?

It could be as minor as opening the door for someone who didn't say "Thank you".
Subconsciously you say, "Asshole" because you felt you were owed a response.

It could be as big as a large as not getting the shares or bonus you worked so hard for.
Subconsciously you set out to sabotage future endeavors because you felt you lost out.

The severity of the example is irrelevant.

What's important is what you create within as you shift away from a transactional 'must get' mentality...
... to a much more fluid 'wish to connect' one. Thus setting you up for long-term success.

This isn't to say that you should act without regard for others...
... it's to say that whenever you place your focus outside of yourself you subconsciously devalue what's within.

A phenomenal example of this is: The Don's Table Podcast with Nick Dio

"We do business with people we like. Period. ... When people show up to do business, the conversation [primarily] goes like this. Here's what I can give, here's what I want. Can we make a deal. ... The way I approach business and relationships is 'I want to get to know you, I want to get to know your family, I want to understand what motivates you, I want to know about where you want to be in 10 years... and naturally over time I want to figure out how to make those things make sense for both of us. It's not going to be on my time clock, or your time clock. It's going to be when it makes sense for both of us."

When we move towards this, we move towards building relationships with those we like and aspire to learn from...
... and life / business get a whole hell of a lot more fun.

Instead of a brilliantly curated checklist/to-do list, how about just asking yourself the question:

"Where in this experience am I not free?"

or

"How can I best serve and support this person?" 

Place your focus on your own energy & frequency...
... and watch as you magnetize the world to you!
