Discovering It’s Okay to Receive
Bob and I often say on interviews that readers tell us, “The first four laws, those felt comfortable — but that fifth law? That Law of Receptivity? Man, that one made me squirm.”

DetailsWith the big launch of Go-Givers Sell More less than three weeks away, the timing is perfect for the completion of our new website.
DetailsA few weeks ago, we promised to unroll a new web site. Here it is: The Go-Giver Scrapbook.
DetailsStill a few weeks away from the Big Launch, we thought it might be fun to give you a sneak peek of what’s actually in the new book. Go-Givers Sell More is not a parable or actual sequel to the first book. (We are writing a true sequel, but that’s still a ways off.) Instead,…
DetailsFrom Don Gandy, the principal at Wheeler High School, in Valparaiso, Indiana. I began reading The Go-Giver in early January [2009] in hopes of finding a book to give to all of our seniors in the school community (145 seniors in this class). This book truly inspired me to realize, in parable format, the importance…
DetailsFrom Joe Vizi, who runs Eco-Scrub, a Concord, Georgia–based family-owned carpet-cleaning business with his wife Renee. About six months ago, we went to clean carpets for an elderly couple. They lived in a small two-bedroom assisted-living place about forty-five minutes away from our home. It was easy to see that they really needed help: the…
DetailsFrom Arlin Sorenson, CEO of Heartland Technology Solution, who held a Go-Giver-themed business retreat in the summer of ’08 on his farm in Harlan, Iowa. Arlin also operates a business peer-group organization called the Heartland Tech Groups (HTG), where owners of different companies in the same industry get together once a quarter for two days…
DetailsIn the Spirit of the Law of Receptivity, I love remembering that our giving actions sometimes come back as a harvest to those we love. It reminds me of a lesson my husband taught me: Several years ago I was VERY pregnant w/ twins, ready to burst and so tired as we left a parking…
DetailsFrom Katie Ball, who works at Encore Senior Living. Encore Senior Living manages Assisted and Independent Living communities and specialized Alzheimer’s communities in Oregon, Washington, California, Arizona, and Utah. We hold monthly team-building conference calls with our Executive Directors based on a “dream it” challenge; it has been very successful and motivational for all involved.…
DetailsFrom Berry Zimmerman, a Seattle-based business consultant who founded and runs an operation called BizEnrich.com: Every business expert who joins BizEnrich receives a copy of The Go-Giver to help clarify the values of the organization and inspire them to serve their clients in a way only a true Go-Giver can understand. Last Friday [Nov. 20,…
DetailsThe many emails John and I have received over the two years that The Go-Giver has been in print have been a huge inspiration to us. In fact, we have shared many of your stories during media interviews, from stage, and even (a few dozen of them) in our soon-to-be released book, Go-Givers Sell More.…
DetailsIn response to an article about our recently announced, “The Go-Giver Award” that John posted at his website, he received an amazingly heartwarming response: Hi John: What a wonderful opportunity to acknowledge another person. I’m so please you and Bob had this idea. When the award went live I printed two awards, one for my…
DetailsIt’s always intriguing to us to see what lessons and messages people take away from their reading of The Go-Giver. One reader who recently reviewed the book on Amazon commented, “Key insight is we all need to learn how to ask for and receive help.” Fascinating! Neither Bob or I would have thought of that…
DetailsYou knew it was coming sooner or later, and we’ve been dropping hints here and there … but with the New Year upon us, we wanted to give you something more substantial — so here it is: Our new Go-Giver book is going to hit the bookstores on February 18. For the romantically inclined, that’s…
