Life really is like a bouncing ball. What you send out is what you get back. And, according to Dr. J. Allan Petersen, the finest gift we can give another human being is the gift of an excellent expectation. He says that "expecting the best provides realistic affirmation of a person's uniqueness, individuality and strengths, and it multiplies itself. It encourages a reciprocal action from other people. The Biblical principle, "Give and it shall be given unto you," applies to expressing appreciation."
This is simply another way of using the Golden Rule in our everyday lives — to treat other people the way you want to be treated. It is also another old principle, "As you sow, so also shall you reap." You plant good, positive thoughts and good, positive actions in other people and society, and the same things will be planted in your mind. Wouldn't it be exciting if we all took that approach? Then I could say to everybody, I'll see you at the top!
