About This Quote
Giving is a great way to gain something from someone, but it can also cause you to gain something from someone else. What I mean is that there are two ways of giving. The first is giving something, and the second is giving an experience. In order to really gain from giving, you need to give an experience.
One good example of this is through volunteering. Volunteering opens up more doors for people than donating money does. It’s like getting paid at the same time as gaining experience.
