Conclusion

Why does finding a great present matter?

The same reason taking no thought in the words you use matters, some words hurt, some are meaningless and some mean the world to you.

If you want people to like you, treat them well. If you want people to trust you, treat them well consistently.

You can change someone’s life with a present, fulfil a dream, help them out of a bad situation  or you can show them no thought what so ever and give them another pair of socks. How do you think someone feels when you get them socks year after year? Do you think this person believes you really listen to them and knows who they are? The obvious answer is NO.

If you don’t think about someone, do you really care about them? Not a lot, those people get a lot of socks.

Gifts are an opportunity, you should use this opportunity to create bonds, bury grudges, re-kindle old relationships and improve existing ties with everyone you reach out to.

If you think of it as just a burden, it will be.

If you think of it as an opportunity, it is.

Creating a shared moment can make all the difference.

Happiness quite unshared can scarcely be called happiness; it has no taste.

― Charlotte Bronte

Its About Them

It’s easy to know what you want, what’s hard is knowing what others want.

You have to come to the realization that not everyone thinks like you, they are not in the same situation, not in the same environment, have different needs and wants, some things you understand, some you don’t understand and never could.

Some things you might be against morally but really it doesn’t matter, because remember ITS NOT ABOUT YOU!

Your feelings don’t count when it comes to other people’s needs and wants. Feelings are not facts, and they are definitely not rational at all times.

When you see something and say that looks good, it doesn’t mean your friends will agree, it doesn’t mean your wife or husband will like it, it doesn’t mean your mum will like it. It just means that you like it and guess what, ITS NOT ABOUT YOU!

Compassion may be defined as the capacity to be attentive to the experience of others, to wish the best for others, and to sense what will truly serve others.

— Joan Halifax

What reaction?

What reaction do you hope to get, if any?

Hoping to get a reaction is fair, demanding a reaction is crazy behavior.

For the people you love, you want them to be happy.

For the people you just get along with and need it to go without a hitch, you want them to accept it without cause for judgment.

For the people you dislike but still have to buy for, you hope it doesn’t
