Question the motives of those who make requests of you. Discover what they really want. You may not want to give it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You don't want to give people what they want. Give them something that they didn't know that they wanted.
I do get a lot of requests for specific things.
The majority of people call or message me because they need something or they want something. You never know what people's intentions are.
One of life's fundamental truths states, 'Ask and you shall receive.' As kids we get used to asking for things, but somehow we lose this ability in adulthood. We come up with all sorts of excuses and reasons to avoid any possibility of criticism or rejection.
I would tell anyone who wants something from someone else to feign not wanting it. People are perverse. If you show great affection to them, they'll run the other way.
Everything you want is out there waiting for you to ask. Everything you want also wants you. But you have to take action to get it.
I don't think about what other people want from me.
I always think if you are asking somebody for something it is a good idea to give them something first.
If you greatly desire something, have the guts to stake everything on obtaining it.
Learn to ask for what you want. The worst people can do is not give you what you ask for which is precisely where you were before you asked.
