Are You Giving Without Expectation?

by jWells on June 18, 2008

Let’s talk about the simple act of giving without wanting anything in return. Many of us are so self-centered that everything we do, even in our closest relationships, is actually bartering rather than unselfish giving. This can be true even when we are dealing with ourselves as I pointed out in my last post, What Do You Think You Deserve?  

We all realize that giving on any level feels really good, but internally all forms of giving are not equal.  When we give with the expectation of receiving something back in return, we are not really letting go of what we are giving. When we do not let go completely, we block the inbound flow of energy.

 .

When you give without expecting something back you open yourself to the  flow of energy in the quantum field.  That energy does not originate with you, it’s a giant feedback loop that we all share. There is no scarcity and therefore no reason to be concerned about “getting your fair share”.

Whatever you give will come back to you many times over in unpredictable ways. But remember, if you are giving simply to get something back, this will not happen. You cannot operate from abundance and scarcity at the same time.

 .

Consider some of the ways that unselfish giving can have a beneficial effect on you:

• Feels satisfying. When you give without wanting anything back it opens up your heart to an enhanced sense of peace, love and joy.

 .

• Stimulates gratitude.  Giving without expectation will elevate your personal awareness of others. As a result you will feel filled with compassion and gratitude.

•  Attracts giving. The Law of Attraction, which I prefer to call The Quantum Feedback Loop, shows that whatever energy you put out into your internal and external world comes back to you. The energy of giving is no exception.

•  Makes you aware of limiting beliefs. When you expose your limiting beliefs to your conscious awareness, then you can let them go. If you are unaware of their existence, they remain active in your subconscious. If allowed to remain, such beliefs can lead to self-sabotaging behaviors. If they continue unchecked, you may wind up attracting the exact opposite of what you intended.

 .

On some level it seem that we are all susceptible to the idea of scarcity. It’s almost like going through life trying to fill up a bag with a hole in the bottom. Energy is abundant and it is always flowing to you and through you. There is no scarcity, so don’t be afraid to give without expectation.
