ROIs

What’s in it for me? How will I benefit? What’s my return on investment (ROI)? These are great questions. Nothing out of the ordinary.

But how many times do you go out on a limb expecting nothing, nunca, nada, zilch in return? Let’s make it easy. From this morning until now, how many of your actions were conditional – meaning you got something in return. How many were unconditional? Hmmmmm.

Most of us tend to tip the scale in favor of conditions. Again, no harm, no foul. But what would a single day of unconditional actions, words, or whatever look like? Feel like? Is a day too long? How about ½ a day. What about a couple of hours?

Go ahead. Triple dog dare you (a reference to A Christmas Story). Be non-transactional. Go out and do something or several somethings fabulous on the sly. Do it without expectation. Your ROI will probably surprise you.
