I hope you're in a post blast mode today :) In my observation people are happy to help when they are in "giving" mode (spiritually speaking). Since help requires a lot more self-motivation there are certain things that one should remember: * One has to deserve and ask the right person for the right help. For instance one cannot ask a painter to help in writing. * The person who is willing to help should not be motivated only on "what he might (or will) get". * The person who is accepting help should not take it for granted. The last two has to do with purely ego. Ego is enemy anywhere and esp when giving/receiving help. Just my $0.02 regards venkk Hi Rajesh

Thanks for the post. I hope you’re in a post blast mode today :)

In my observation people are happy to help when they are in “giving” mode (spiritually speaking). Since help requires a lot more self-motivation there are certain things that one should remember:

* One has to deserve and ask the right person for the right help. For instance one cannot ask a painter to help in writing.

* The person who is willing to help should not be motivated only on “what he might (or will) get”.

* The person who is accepting help should not take it for granted.

The last two has to do with purely ego. Ego is enemy anywhere and esp when giving/receiving help.

Just my $0.02
