The Giver’s Guide to Greatness, Part 2 #130

“We judge others by their actions, we judge ourselves by our intentions.” — Stephen Covey  Giving is a powerful philosophy for business and for life. Put simply, if you give more, you get more. There is no better investment you can make in your business, your relationships, or your character. Give in slices, and it will come back in loaves! In this episode, Brian and Joe delve into more guidelines, tips, and strategies for giving your way to greatness. You’ll learn why people crave attention and respond so well when you pay it to them, how you can give someone the benefit of the doubt instead of jumping to judgment, why being respectful is one of the keys to building successful relationships, and how an attitude of gratitude can transform your life and be the most powerful gift you give to both others and to yourself.

Join today!   Inspirational quotes from today’s interview: “Distractions are all around us.” – Joe Niego “I give attention with my eyes, ears, and body language. I want people to feel their value.” – Joe Niego “I do a lot more listening than I do talking.” – Joe Niego “I give people a lot of attention because I’m genuinely interested in learning from them.” – Brian Buffini “People get very athletic in relationships – they’re quick to judgment and often jump to conclusions. That’s not healthy.” – Joe Niego “We judge others by their actions, we judge ourselves by our intentions.” Stephen Covey “I don’t think there’s been a time in history when people have jumped to conclusions and judged quicker more than now.” – Brian Buffini “A lot of times there are ten sides to a story.” – Brian Buffini “The world does not revolve around you.” – Joe Niego “Respect is not given in a package, it’s given with behavioral interactions.” – Joe Niego “When you show respect, love often follows.” – Brian Buffini “The one word in the English vocabulary that I use more than any other is thanks.” – Joe Niego “You can’t feel grateful and entitled at the same time.” – Brian Buffini “Having an attitude of gratitude is a gift you give to others and, more importantly, it’s the one gift you give to yourself.” – Joe Niego   Mentioned in the episode: “As a Man Thinketh” by James Allen   Connect with Brian Buffini http://www.brianbuffini.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brianbuffini Twitter: https://twitter.com/brianbuffini Buffini Show Insiders: http://www.thebrianbuffinishow.com/insiders Love what you heard?
