What Will You Offer Others?

There are so many resources to discover your gifts. Find an assessment, take the talents you discover and see if they align with your values. You’ll soon find out you were probably enamored with the gift wrap, not the gift itself. It doesn’t matter what your gift wrap is, unless there’s an inescapable pull towards a specific wrapping (e.g., swimming, quantum physics?). No matter the paper weight or pattern, when receivers tear through your wrapping and open the box, it comes down to four emotions: Joy, Gratitude, Relief and the desire to Reciprocate (paying it forward).
