Somewhere sometime ago I heard someone saying “the best way to succeed is to help others succeed.” I believe it is attributed to the organizational psychologist Adam Grant. There is so much truth in that statement. I derive so much joy finding opportunities for others, whether it is writing a letter of recommendation, researching fellowships for a newsletter, or dreaming together with a friend . When you enrich the life of people around you, you are enriching your own spirit. This in turn makes you a warmer and lighthearted person to be around, which in turn opens you doors to new opportunities. It becomes a virtuous cycle. It is Newton’s third law of motion, “you get back what you put in.”
