SITE: http://www.courtneyanderson.com/swca-episode-145-joyful-art-of-business-series-reciprocity-is-it-required-for-professional-success.html SHOW NOTES: JOYFUL ART OF BUSINESS: “RECIPROCITY! Is it REQUIRED for Professional Success?” This episode is part of our JOYFUL ART OF BUSINESS™ series wherein we explore how to combine the positive benefits of our professional endeavors (“business”) with the overall positive emotional return on our efforts (“joy”). Our episode topic is, “RECIPROCITY! Is it REQUIRED for Professional Success?”This show brings this song lyric to mind, “Tell me who I have to be to get some reciprocity.” (Song: Ex-factor, Album: The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill, Artist: Lauryn Hill, Songwriters: SCOTT, THOMAS WRIGHT / HILL, LAURYN N.)Definition of Reciprocity:“: a situation or relationship in which two people or groups agree to do something similar for each other, to allow each other to have the same rights, etc. : a reciprocal arrangement or relationship” Reciprocity. (n.d.). Retrieved July 5, 2014, from http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/reciprocityBottom Line: If you actions are not reciprocated, STOP. WAIT. If your actions are never reciprocated, that shows you that you have to recalibrate your choices. Either give voluntarily with no expectation of being treated in the same manner in return, or cease to do more than the minimum required by the relationship and circumstances. DO NOT GIVE AND THEN GROW ENRAGED THAT YOU ARE NOT TREATED WELL IN RETURN. You chose this unbalanced relationship. © Courtney Anderson Enterprises LLC  CourtneyAnderson.com   [email protected]
