Give Something Back
| |
| A great philosopher once said, whatever you want more of, give it away. The best way to ensure an ongoing flow of abundance into your life is to share with others the wealth you receive. I am a big believer in tithing -- giving away 10% of your income to your church and favorite charities. I believe that it does indeed come back multiplied. This has been demonstrated in my life and the lives of Chicken Soup for the Soul readers over and over again. |

Lack of Seriousness - The Last Interview with Vonnegut

Lead by Example – Do the Important Things Better
| |
| Modern management practices are often imposed by the forces which require short term results. Back in the 1980s, W.
