Read and Weep!

Here is a little story to make you think about that question, What is in it for me.

There was this man that lived most of his life by nothing more than, What is in it for me attitude. He did not care about anybody or anything unless he got something out of it for himself. One day when he was older, he had a visit to the doctor. The doctor told him he had a very rapid form of cancer and he had only three to six months to live.

The doctor explained to him that there was nothing they could do, but there were some experimental treatments out there if he wanted to try them. So he thought, why not, anything would be better than death. The treatments made him deathly sick to where he actually thought being dead would be better.

Then a few weeks later he received a phone call from his doctor. The doctor was almost screaming on the phone saying, You were misdiagnosis, the lab made a mistake, you do not have cancer!

A New Beginning

Could you just image the unbelievable emotions that you would be having at that moment, if this happened to you! Well, with this news, it changed this mans life forever. He took a whole new outlook to life. No more he thought would it be only, What is in it for me! He looked at each day as a gift. He was going to have true abundance in life and his business from now on.

So what does all this mean? to have true abundance and not go around in life just thinking, What is in it for me?
