Lesson #5 Sometimes people listen to you even if they pretend like they are not!

Sometimes it's hard knowing or at least feeling pretty sure you know you can help someone and have them act like they aren't hearing you. You offer to help, even giving information with no expectation that they will listen or even if it's the work you do, will hire you to do it.

I have had some pretty strange instances this year when giving of myself and sharing information, the person I shared with simply acted as if they didn't think it was a good idea. But later I found out they followed the advice.

I literally had one person at a meeting take almost exactly what I said and repeat it as if it were her idea. To be honest it kind of irked me at the moment...but then I remember, some are takers and some are givers. I would be the giver.

It's sometimes hard to not get credit, actually feels a little crummy to be honest. But then I remember that it is in my nature to give....and I will keep doing it.
