Met Yiming for dinner last night and we had a wonderful chat and learning together. We discusses about M&Y, BSE, business, personal issues etc. He shared with me this special lesson which is now deeply embedded in my heart.
He told me an experience that he had in the past. Yiming is a nice, polite, friendly, quiet guy. He has a heart of giving. Whenever friends from other countries visit him, he will surely bring them around, accompany them. I can testified for this, because I’m one of those friends.
And there was this time when a few of his friends, who are successful businessman from the States visited KL. As usual, the kind Yiming drove them around for sight seeing. Those friends then passed him some money for petrol and his time. Yiming being courteous rejected the gift.
His friends then took the opportunity to teach him something so powerful that shift his mindset.
It’s good to have the heart of giving, but at the same time you must learn to receive. If someone offer you a gift, accept it with gratitude. This person is also practicing the act of giving. By receiving, you allow this person to give.
Hey, in that case, it’s a cycle. Giving and receiving is a cycle. If this cycle is stop along the way, it will start hogging the energy. This stops the energy from flowing, lesser and lesser energy will be flowing to you, which will end up you having lesser and lesser of what you want.
That’s not all. If energy stop flowing to you, in fact it does not actually stop, it changes direction. It simple flows to someone else who do not have a block. It will flow to someone who can keep the cycle going, that person will end up with a lot more.
Open your heart to give and receive, keep the cycle flowing, and abundance will flow to you.
Thank you Yiming for the great lesson.
