Part 31 of 45 · Chapter 32 · 9 min 50 sec
You’ve already done more giving than most people realize. You’ve offered free sessions. You’ve sent the long voice notes. You’ve shared resources, made introductions, dropped value into other people’s businesses without asking for a thing back. If anything, the people around you would say you give too much. So when a chapter shows up called “Giving,” part of you might cross your arms and think: I’ve already got this one.
And yet, if something still isn’t clicking around money — if your generosity keeps flowing out but the return flow feels blocked or random — there’s something specific this chapter exposes that most of the books on your shelf don’t name. The gap isn’t that you don’t give. It’s that the way you’ve been giving was built to keep you safe, not to keep you in flow with life.
It’s not you. Many of us learned early that giving was how we earned our place. Give first. Give more. Don’t expect anything. Don’t be greedy. That’s not a character flaw — that’s an adaptation. And it works beautifully for surviving a difficult childhood. It just doesn’t work for building wealth, because giving from fear and giving from cheerfulness create completely different energy patterns.
Here’s the reframe David offers in this chapter. Real giving is cheerful and free. It expects a reward — but not from the person you gave to. The universe handles the accounting. The moment we start tracking, “I did this for you, so you owe me that,” we’ve stopped giving and started trading. And trading-mind is what keeps the wealth pipe constricted, no matter how much we hand out.
If that distinction lands for you — between giving cheerfully and giving from old, anxious patterns — this chapter is worth your full attention. Press play.
What this chapter unlocks
- Why the energy behind the giving matters more than the gift itself. David is clear: grudging giving doesn’t activate the law. Cheerful, free giving does. Same action, completely different result.
- The rule that protects the law from collapsing into trade. Never demand or expect payback from the person you gave to. The return comes from the universe, in a form and timing it chooses — not from the recipient.
- What David says about causing others to have wealth. If you want wealth, help others build wealth. Teach. Share books. Form study groups. To the extent you cause others to build wealth, you build yours.
- The bonus effect of giving that nobody talks about. Giving shows you what you already had but didn’t know you had. People who decide to give wealth-knowledge often discover they had far more wealth capability than they thought.
- The Kahlil Gibran principle hidden inside this chapter. Those who give little of much, for recognition, give an unwholesome gift. Those who have little and give it all are the believers in life — and their coffer is never empty.
The 30-second test
Listen to the first 30 seconds. If you hear David name giving as one of the greatest laws and feel a small flinch — a quiet “but I already give so much” — this is your chapter. That flinch is the signal that your giving and your receiving are out of balance, and the chapter walks straight into the fix.
Why this chapter matters in the series
The chapters leading up to this one have been building the inner architecture: belief, thought, identity, the willingness to receive. Giving is where that architecture meets the world. It’s the doing piece — the action that actually circulates the energy you’ve been working on internally. And it sets up what comes right after: gratitude. Because giving and gratitude are the twin currents that keep wealth moving. One without the other always stalls.

form study groups or Mastermind circles with them where two r more are gathered the whole is more or more are gathered the whole is more than the sum of its parts develop an awareness that enables you to look out for and see all opportunities where you can give something freely and cheerfully ou can give material things your time you can give material things your time skills or anything else get out of the habit of thinking that you should receive something first before you give that is not giving that is an exchange giving freely and cheerfully enables you to do business if you wish to look at it hat way with the universe this is how
that way with the universe this is how it works you give someone something that you have now with you freely and cheerfully the universe by law finds the best way to give back that energy to you in the form of something that you do not have with you it gives you back in multiples when it is most appropriate in the most appropriate form it is a magical process obviously the more you give the more magic you create for yourself Life Starts to work for you develop a strong desire and persistence to give cheerfully and freely in your goal setting remember to include several goals that are about free and cheerful giving giving under the law
of cause and effect is one of the most powerful actions you can take it returns in multiples Sevenfold you cannot afford to leave out giving in your life plan you cannot afford to leave it to chance occurrence develop giving into a habit something you do naturally without having to think of it this makes you into a consistent and persistent Giver in the universe will work for you give spontaneously work on the habit of giving until you get to a point where you enjoy giving enjoy it horoughly it is okay to think and know thoroughly it is okay to think and know that when you give you will get back something from the universe you do
not have to pretend you’re not interested in receiving award for giving expecting a reward is good in fact expecting a reward is empowering a reward to come to you the violation of the law of giving comes when you start expecting to receive something back from the same being you give to saying well I did this for you so you should do that for me in fact demanding a particular reward back is a violation it it makes you trading minded rather than cheerful and free giving minded never ask or expect payback from those you give to the reward you receive will come from a source in a time and in a form that the Universe finds
best suited for you you always have something to give time compliments Talent money knowledge share a book Etc giving has one bonus effect it shows you what you have but did not know you had say you wish to have wealth you then decide to give wealth first by helping others learn how to have wealth you read books such as these help where you can with such knowledge share these kind of books and so on in that process magically you end up realizing you had a whole lot of wealth and wealth capabilities that you previously thought lacked you are surrounded with abundant opportunities to give but you only see them when you decide to start seeing
them learn also to receive graciously and happily do not feel uncomfortable receiving you deserve it and by receiving you are in harmony with the law of giving and receiving the trick to giving is to not force it upon those you give to offer your gift freely and cheerfully show your hand do not shove show if the receiver does not wish to take your gift respect that cheerfully do not get offended if your gift is not accepted allow the other person their full nature of freedom and choice and do not make a person dependent on you when a person becomes dependent on your gifts unnecessarily you have not done them any good because you have reduced
their belief and ability in themselves here’s a likely scenario imagine a person who does not have much in material possessions to give and share with others but this person is very Charming and kind the person gives a thousand compliments to people he or she comes across without even getting one compliment back this person uplifts their mood and confidence by finding ways to encourage and compliment them but this person never gets a compliment back from anybody well not to worry the universe keeps its accounts perfectly this person’s giving builds Credit in the Universal System One Day by the law of cause and effect of giving and receiving this person somehow gets the bicycle he or she
has always wanted just when the person needed it in a way that looks like a miracle it could be by winning some competition or having it given to them by a stranger or one of a countless other possibilities what people call luck that is how giving works sometimes the universe takes little things that you have can give and o give and it puts them into one big do give and it puts them into one big thing that you do not have and require and it gives that to you at a perfect ime time you give but little when you give of your possessions it is when you give of yourself that you truly give for
what are possessions but things you keep in guard for fear you may need them tomorrow and what is fear of need but itself is not dread of thirst when your well is full The Thirst that is unquenchable there are those who give little of the much of which they have and they give it for recognition and their hidden desire makes the gift un wholesome and there are those who have little and give it all these are the Believers in life and the Bounty of life and their Coffer is never empty it is well to give when asked but it is better to give unasked through understanding for in truth it is life that gives unto
life while you who deem yourself a giver are but a witness and you are all receivers Kalo jabran the prophet all other things held constant to the extent that an individual or Society shares and gives in the right way so will they have wealth and happiness now you know how to do business with the universe so to speak the universe itself is a giving Universe for life is for giving you give and you receive Sevenfold you actually are rewarded for your kindness The Source life is all about giving and the intelligence that runs the universe honors your giving always always give cheerfully everything in life is a gift especially with regard regard to wealth and
happiness never cease to cause others to have wealth and happiness and you will have wealth and happiness in multiples but what goes with giving receiving and what goes with that gratitude thank you let’s have a look at hat
