Sometimes when we're generous, we'll get taken advantage of. Host Travis Shelton recently posted a $100 Starbucks gift card on our podcast Facebook group to bless some of our listeners. In addition to hopefully bringing a few smiles to people's faces, we expected two things to happen. The first: people would abuse the gift. Wow they didn't disappoint!!! In today's episode, we talk about how this all played out (you won't even believe it), why it can be so demoralizing when we get taken advantage of, and why it's so important we don't let the selfishness of others rob us of our generous spirit. We think this is such an important concept to embrace along our giving journey. It's inevitable we'll be hurt, taken advantage of, and our gifts abused......however, it shouldn't cloud the bigger picture or prevent us from growing in our generosity. If nothing else, it helps us get better, more impactful, more creative, and even more generous along the way.
