Earlier this week I had some time on my hands due to a diary mix-up, which left me with a chunk of time.

I could have reviewed the website, written another article, or even gone for a walk, but I decided that I wanted to engage with people on my mailing list... people who share the same passions as me... people I'm hear to serve, so this is what I did...

I sent out an email to them, inviting them to call me and discuss their biggest challenge.

Wow... what a response... I spent just over two hours with calls coming in - and some people couldn't get through because the lines were jammed!

Everyone I spoke to that day moved on. It's amazing, that a 20 minute conversation can blow away the stuckness (stuckness that's sometimes been lingering for months).

But this is what happens...

Sometimes we get caught up in difficulties and then we start foucussing on all the things that are wrong and why we don't want them. Other times we get caught up when we're faced with doing a task (like selling) that we don't want to do and we can't find a way around it.

Sometimes we have a dream... we've set a goal to maybe earn a set amount by a certain date, yet when we think about it, we realise we need help.

As well as speaking with lots of people, we had a flood of emails, saying thanks for our generosity and that they were blown away by the fact we'd spend a half day, giving away our time.

To be honest, I loved it and it didn't feel like work. But the payback was around a £1000 in unexpected income! 

Proof that when you give you receive!

love and best wishes
