Law Numero Dos

The second law is the "Law of Giving." This law discusses the importance of giving and receiving and why it is necessary to keep wellness and affluence circulating in life. According to Chopra, it is the intention behind the giving and receiving that is the most important thing.

"The intention should always be to create happiness for the giver and receiver, because happiness is life supporting and life sustaining and generates increase. The return is directly proportional when it is given from the heart...Practicing the Law of Giving is actually very simple: if you want joy, give joy to others; if you want love, learn to give love; if you want attention and appreciation, learn to give attention and appreciation; if you want material affluence, help others to become materially affluent."

So in following the Seven Spiritual Laws of Success, I will put the "Law of Giving" into effect by making the following commitment to take the following steps:

1. Wherever I go, and whoever I encounter I will bring them a gift. This gift may be a compliment, a flower or a prayer. Today I will give something to everyone I come into contact with and so I will begin the process of circulating joy, wealth and affluence in my life and the life of others.

2. Today I will gratefully receive all the gifts that life has to offer me. I will receive the gifts of nature: sunlight and the sound of birds singing (good thing Spring is almost here!) or the Spring showers or the first snow of Winter. I will also be open to receiving from others, whether that be in the form of a material gift, money, a compliment or a prayer.

3. I will make a commitment to keep wealth circulating in my life bye giving a receiving life's most precious gifts: the gifts of caring, affection appreciation and love. Each time I meet someone, I will silently wish them happiness, joy & laughter.
