Welcome back listeners. This week it’s me talking about the unwritten rule of reciprocity. Wikipedia says this rule of reciprocity requires that we repay in kind what another has done for us. However, we shouldn’t find ourselves trapped in this obligation to repay the gift or service another bestowed upon us. I’m having a real conversation about this and shaking up the norm!
I challenge you to think about these three things the next time someone offers to help, sends a gift, or does you a favor.
- Trust that offers are genuine. And don’t let this obligate you to reciprocate.
- Allow the potential discomfort. You may feel obligated to reciprocate. You make feel like you didn’t deserve the gift/service. Allow these feelings.
- Follow the rule of reciprocity and like your reasons. Or don’t follow the rule and like your reasons.
