A debate: being free and kind, or demanding respect and importance

Be better than before, than yesterday...

There are two conflicting thoughts:    one is to be kind and helpful - tell to the world.   And this post would like to live by that paradigm.  All that was given to you free shall be re given to others free .  A certain religous and ethnic group likes to live by this and are truly blessed.

However there is another point of view the Machiavellian point of view that others must give respect and honor to your unique talents and leadership.  

Which is better?

For the first one, I could not get any consultancy because I give the secret to all those who ask.  And my distinct advantage over others do not get more noticed.  Others take advantage of my generosity.  Even our business partners.   They pick my brains and then proceed to do it on their own.  No respect. No NDA

I would like to tell of a story of a business person who got the best deal out of me/us: (and  abused us)

     1.  Sued us  constantly

     2.  Made it hard to give us ROW.  It had been pending for 20 years +

     3.  Having an appointment with her takes ages and is extremely difficult

However a member of the family got critically ill and has 7 number bill at the hospital and would want me to give her aid.

Should we or not.   Or the person reaps what she has sowed

Saw somewhere at a social media: story how a failing resto was turned around by a fertile mindset

Be better than before, than yesterday...

A rich expanding mindset, employing reverse thinking can turn around a failing business and make money for the owners.  After all, capital is not money.  It is from capito - head that makes money.  A thinking fertile mind know how to source money and create more.  

There was story and this was gleaned from Mashabook Success Strategies that tells of the boss and his assistant who just got from a seminar in BGC.  The boss asks the assistant what her desire were:  to get a LV bag worth P300,000 and a car.  The boss said he would nt do that.  May be he will give her a business.  

So they stopped by a Korean restaurant that does not have much traffic.  So the boss asks the owner how much would he sell the failing Korean restaurant.  The latter said P1.8 million    So the boss proposed a deal;    How about giving you an option money for P300,000 (the money for the LV bag)  and we try the business for one month    If it is good we continue and fulfill the P1.8 million purchase price;   if not we forfeit the P300,000 and consider it a rent .  The Korean resto owner agreed it being seemingly a perfect risk free deal.    

The boss said to the assistant.  Now you own the resto.    But follow what I say.  The assistant panicked:  how will I able to pay the remaining P1,500,000?

1.  Tomorrow, place this ad announcement:   "  Free soju that you can carry with one hand."  

2.  Free soju some more for those who will publish this on tiktok instagram  or FB;   they can bring their friends.

3.  Soon the resto was buzzing with activity with those availing of free soju promo

The next problem:  what if the prospects just availed of the free soju?
