Generosity Wins, Written By Monte And Nicole, Is The Gift That Keeps On Giving

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:14:29 GMT

Two authors, Monte Wood and Dr. Nicole F. Roberts, are more focused on people sharing their book “Generosity Wins” versus the number of copies sold. Why? Because generosity doesn’t cost a thing. As we enter the gift-giving season, It’s important to remember what this holiday represents. For children, it often signifies the time of year when alluring presents pile out from beneath the tree and goodies spill from hung stockings. But as we grow older, the act of receiving becomes less prominent as we shift into the role of giving without expectation of return and learn appreciation for the generous act itself. There remains a fondness for the adolescent glee that once accompanied Christmas, yet, something deeper is experienced – a feeling of fulfillment when we watch the eyes of our loved ones light up as they experience joyful new things.This feeling is not limited to the month of December, it’s an experience shared during birthdays, special events, anniversaries, and so on.

Its inception was aimed at replicating the strategies of successful individuals in order to create a roadmap to success for everyone.However, despite its widespread use, NLP continues to be shrouded in mystery and misunderstandings, often dismissed as pseudoscience by skeptics. According to Fabián Tejada, an author, and prominent Master NLP trainer, one of the reasons why this field has been clouded in uncertainty and mistrust is because of a prevalent—yet groundless—belief that NLP, and hypnosis in general, is a suitable tool for manipulation. As the sole NLP Master trainer in Latin America certified by the creator of advanced NLP, he stands out as a foremost expert in the field within the region.Tejada argues this couldn’t be further from the tru...
