Generosity in business, does it even matter or should you just sell hard even if it doesn’t feel good? As we were talking over our weekend plans she told me it was too far to drive for a day but something deep down directed me to go anyways.
For some strange reason, she awoke from sweet dreams an hour before normal. We had planned on heading north about 1.5 hours to a series of bays on the Sea of Cortez in Baja, Mexico between Loreto & Mulege.

Generosity In Business Has Many Turns
There are 5 bays and numerous other beaches you could drive to. Which will we stop at? She had asked me what our plans were & I simply stated to allow the universe to direct our path.
In case you are wondering who the she is, she is my wife, Felicia. Generosity in business doesn’t only work, it’s the only way. In this blog as I finish my story, I hope to share with you a different way of looking at business.
We arrived at an incredibly beutiful bay but something inside said, it wasn’t the one. It just didn’t call me on this day.
The Way is not in the sky; the Way is in the heart.
To me, this means to allow your heart to direct the way. We call this intuition or a gut feeling.
The Start Of The Day
Coming around a corner on the edge of a cliff, this campground on came up on our right side. Immiedately something told me that it was the one.
I said, “Sweets, this is where we will call home to our day off.”
And so, it was. We stayed on this beach for the rest of the day. Shortly after setting up camp, our new neighbors came over to say hi. We learned later her name was Jenie.
What You Didn’t Know
1 month ago as a holiday gift, we decided to order a really nice inflatable kayak from Sea Eagle. By now you know we are staying in Mexico. This means it needed to be shipped to Mexico.
Our kayak has been held up at the border. As Jennie warmly walked on over to our jeep to greet us she said. “Oh & by the way. We are heading into town for a bit & you are welcome to use our kayaks. They are on the other side of our camp.”
You have no idea but Felicia was just speaking about wanting to be out on the water as I muttered “be present” back to her. The universe had delivered again.
Generosity in business creates an atmoshere to thrive in for your customers. It’s that intangable feeling that people become addicted to. They don’t know why it feels so good. It’s a feeling, not a tangible thing.
Creating The Feeling
What we are all searching for in business is the creation of that feeling. How can we create a feeling that becomes addicting? When we first start, it’s all about cashflow. Most of us would do anything or create anything to make a dime.
Here at TheLiveNetworker, our goal is to make business easy through authentic relationship building or generosity. You can’t make business easy using solely your head. It will not work.
Much like my story above. It we were looking at the map or outside our window for sheer beauty, we never would have found the spot. We wouldn’t have expierenced the sheer generosity from Jenie & Dan. We never would have been out on that kayak in the middle of the ocean.
In much the same way, use your head to go to the appoximate destination but let your heart pick the exact path. Let that feeling inside you take the reins that doesn’t really make sense. That feeling is called intuition or your gut feeling & is never wrong.
The Generosity Circle
This entire idea of the generosity circle came from an amazing guy, Jay Shetty. Oh yeah, I highly reccomend his book as well. Click here to pick it up.
Jay has influenced & deepened my look at business recently. I didn’t want to take 100% credit for how I think because that would be wrong.
Generosity, love & care are all the same to me. When most of us send generosity or love to others, we expect the same dose of generosity to come back.
That is just not how the universe set it up. It’s a culmunation of generosity & love sent that makes all the difference.
Generosity in business is like a boomerang. The more you send out, the more you will recieve. The optical allusion is it will almost never come back from the source you game it to… by design. Otherwise it would be too easy.
One Surefire Way To Create Generosity In Business
If you are still reading this article, it’s obvious you would like to create more generosity in business. If it is true that love & generosity is like a boomerang, it is my opinion that I will give out as much as I possibly can.
This is what I do. If I meet you & like you (hahaha), I will send you a card & brownies. This is no joke. Ask anyone who has had a call with me.
Financially does this make sense? Well, I know have numbers to back it up but… Imagine this for a second.
I meet you & we have a great first conversation. We talk about you & what you are focused with. We create another appointment for me to present my business to you.
Before we meet the next time, you receive a nice to meet you card & a sweet treat. Do you think your “feeling” will be a touch different about me? Do you think you’ll want to put more people in that “feeling”?
On top of that, your birthday rolls around and you get a card from me with cake bars. You haven’t spent a dime with me but now you feel cared for & loved.
If you continue to send gratitude & love to prospects & customers, the atmophere around you is irrestible. People just want to be in it & soak it up. They want to send referrals your way constantly.
Your Generosity In Business Must Be Authentic
Just remember, your generosity in business must come from a feeling tone of generosity. It’s not about the card & brownies. It’s about the energy that it comes with.
Generosity is an action, it’s not a thing that you do. It comes from the heart much like the quote earlier from Buddha.
Jenie had incredible generosity. She also understands how the universe works. The luckiest people in the world are the most generous at a heart level. Things just happen to them “by chance”. Except it wasn’t by chance, the boomerang is just coming back.
In Conclusion
There is not a doubt in my mind that Jenie was a boomerang of generosity coming back to us. Generosity in business isn’t a transaction & those who treat it as such will NEVER get results.
As we were leaving to head home, a car drives up. The driver gets out and opens his trunk, a normal thing in Mexico. Knowing he was selling something, I’ve learned to give generous presence to see what they have to offer.
Felicia had been wanting a cinnimon roll, American style, for months. No joke, we couldn’t find one going to bakery after bakery. Out on a bay with no cell phone service in the middle of nowhere, it show up.
The next morning, the sugary sweet flavor reminded me of generous outpouring of the universe. Our job is to tap into it & become a terminal instead of a stop gap.
Generosity in business is not a fad. It will never where out. Your competition can’t outspend you. If you like this, grab our course down below.
