When’s the last time you did someone a big favor?
And if your first response is: what do you mean by big favor…you’re already missing the point.
We talk about trading favors, owing someone a favor, someone owes us a favor, but that definition of favor incites keeping score.
I’m talking about the favor that means: an act of kindness beyond what is usual. (not beyond what is due, but beyond usual).
For ‘beyond usual’ there’s no score keeping necessary, but simply our understanding of normal and then choosing to go above and beyond.
Everyone in your world who comes to mind hopes someone will do them a big favor. They’d love it. Maybe you’re the someone.
