Creativity Tip No. 21

Giving Gifts to Others Brings Abundance

 

I just finished reading 29 Gifts: How a Month of Giving Can Change Your Life by Cami Walker. As with many successful self-help books, the message in the book is simple but profound.

Cami found out she had MS a month after she was married, a diagnosis that shook the world she and her husband were planning for themselves.

Fighting the horrible disease, Cami received a presccription from her friend and spiritual advisor: give 29 gifts away in 29 days and wait to see the abundance you will experience.

If you find yourself in a bad way right now, reading this book may help. I thought that the way Cami describes her newly embraced way of life was inspiring and made a huge difference in her life.

Cami is coming here to Pittsburgh to talk this month and I plan to hear her speak. I will write more about that later. In the meantime, I hope you will check out her website for more information.
