I believe I’ve vented enough about my current situation with my former business associates. I would like to talk a little bit about reciprocity now and how I will be standing up for myself, and what I believe will ultimately happen to the company that made the poor choice to remove me from employment.
First, I will state the law of reciprocity according to drjerm. This is as follows:
“Everything you give in this life with honesty, integrity, and loyalty shall be given back to you at least twice over. Everything you take away in this life with selfish or mal-intent shall be taken from you at least ten times over.”
So what is this saying? Basically if you give of yourself and treat others properly, you will help them grow and they will become loyal to you and you will reap benefits beyond what you have given. If you decide to be selfish, inconsiderate of others, or have other agendas that take away from other people, you shall eventually lose much more than what you have taken.
Notice I said eventually. I have no dobut that there are people in this world who are making it big at the unfortunate expense of other people. Eventually these types of people will get what is coming to them. It may not be in a year, five years, or even 10 years. But I believe that eventually, all things come full circle.
And so it is with me. I have had a flame lit under me. I realize I have hap-hazardly been working on the projects that I know will help me create my legacy in the world today. I know that I have not used my talents and abilities nearly enough to leave my mark on the world and to inspire and uplift others.
I mean, look at me – I am jobless, have a mortgage to pay, and I have a family to take care of. I’m not afraid, but I am in a tough situation. And you know what? Instead of getting a ‘day’ job, I am going to kick myself into another dimension and bring to pass the fulfillment of my talents and abilities. This road is not going to be easy. It is going to be difficult. It will be straining. It will be worth it.
As I do this, I will show that a jobless husband who believes in himself can and will achieve success and beyond. I will show that the efforts of one man can make a difference. I hope to inspire all of you who read this and show you the evidence that it can be done.
As for exactly what my reciprocity is, it will manifest itself over time, but quickly. I am dedicating my life to achieving success now and I don’t have all the time in the world. In fact, I have 3 months as of tommorow. That’s roughly how long our savings will hold up. I am outlining a plan of attack for each and every day that I will accomplish. In three months time, I will have much to report. Until then, check back every day as I will have something new to share :)
As for the company that let me go, the reciprocity to them is the loss of me and my twin brother, two talented developers far and beyond what normal developers can do. But more than that, the company has lost my many hidden talents and abilities.
Wish me luck, I will need it!
