Shared

Sharing increases value and fulfills purpose. 

If Michael Jordan makes the exact same championship winning shot playing by himself, what would happen? The exact same shot that won the team the trophy, in front of thousands of people and millions more watching on TV. If he were playing by himself in the same stadium early morning, makes the same shot from the same place on the court. That 3 point shot has a different value. 

If a scientist keeps the cure for a disease locked in a file and doesn’t share it with society, what would be the value of that cure? 

The same applies to all our good intentions on a daily basis  holding the door open for someone at the grocery store, a kind word to an enemy, a smile to the difficult colleague, even being kind to ourselves.

Do the basics that matter, when it matters, not in an empty stadium or locked in a file.
