Sometime we put the carriage before the horses.
The main question is why would I want to make an impression? What should I do with the trust I receive from the people? Which is your goal? It isn’t money, as money is just another measure for the trust you receive. But what would you do with the trust you receive? Make more trust?

And coming back to making an impression, what do you think about just listening to the people, let them feel that they were deeply understood. Would that make an impression?

Thanks there. It sure is a package huh. I don’t normally put together packages but this certainly is one.

That’s good to hear about that one on giving. Removing expectation is the biggest surprise to others, and gives us more power. I continue to do this at times.

Sure thing there. That’s how I do it big.

You might be right about those being posts in themselves. I actually once had a guest post from my friend Nick that is related to #2.

I sure have seen good when I have invested in the good of others without expecting much back. It sure is tougher than you say it is, because our mind tells us that we are losing when we do this.

I think you’re right about how the getting takes cares of itself when then doing is in place.

That added message you present about being in someone else’s shoes is an appealing portion of it. We get back to our own doings and realize that we have wonderful opportunities, but we didn’t see this until we looked from the view of someone else, or at someone else’s efforts.

You’ve got an empowering tone.

That sure is a relevant one. Some folks stick heavily to action-based methods, and they do just fine without the need to describe what they are doing. I had a guest post on my site one time about leading by example. Doing so sends a clear message.

I like that you made the distinction between results and action. Action is the part in our hands.

A comprehensive list of things to create an impression. It a self growth package in itself, with lots of great ideas.

I think my favourite has got to be; “Give Something Without Expecting Anything In Return”. This is such a powerful act.

Also Dragos, Armen is right you have a great site here. Well done!

Paul´s last blog ..A place for everything and everything in its place

It’s a core belief of mine that one of the most effective means of making my life better – that is, more fulfilling, more balanced, calmer, of greater service to others and generally a happier place to be – is by being less me-focused (some might say less selfish) and regularly, graciously and passionately investing into the lives of others without agenda, expectation or catch. I always encourage the people who I mentor to get involved in a project, organisation or cause bigger than themselves and today I have decided to encourage you to do the same. This doesn’t mean becoming a slave or a doormat to any person or thing, it simply means finding a way to practically live out your core values of generosity, kindness, integrity and love. And to get out of your own way for a while. It can be a time when we focus on doing good, as opposed to getting good. And of course in the doing, the getting takes care of itself anyway.

Someone Else’s Shoes

While it’s great to consciously work on our own stuff, there also comes a time when it’s actually healthier and more productive for us to step away from it for a while and to invest some time, care and energy into the lives of others; to see the world through the eyes of another and to walk in someone else’s shoes for a while. The cool thing is that more often than not, when I return to my stuff, it isn’t nearly as bad as it was the day before. That’s usually because it wasn’t the problem, I was.
