Give And (Not Just) Take

Balance is the key

Taking advantage of others seems to have become a trending sport lately. It is based on the idea that the more you grab for yourself and take for free at the expense of another, the smarter you are.

Nothing could be further from the truth. The truth is, that this erroneous attitude is ruining relationships, our society, and the world at large.

Nobody likes to be taken advantage of and nobody likes abusers, so follow the Golden Rule and ‘do as you would be done by.’ What’s stupid is to take without giving back — in the long run, it always backfires.
