Summary
As Les Brown says on today’s episode … “Most people don’t give because they don’t understand the ABUNDANCE in life. And so they go through life holding back on life, not understanding that what you hold back from life, life holds back from you.” When you’re standing on the cliff clutching your boomerang, you keep your hand from opening to receive.
Today’s clip comes from Les Brown’s audio program The Power of Purpose available on Audible and from Nightingale Conant.

| 0:00.0 | What you hold back from life, life holds back from you, and that is the Court of the Day. |
| 0:30.0 | Welcome back to the Court of the Day Show. I'm your host, Sean Crox and I'm Sean Crox and |
| 0:38.9 | .com. Happy Monday to you. Today, I've got something really, really special for you. |
| 0:45.1 | And of course, I got less brown with me. And it's that the topic that less is talking about, |
| 0:51.4 | it's so important. It's one of the most important things that anybody can ever talk about. |
| 0:55.9 | And my hope is that you won't just listen to this episode once, that you'll listen to it a dozen |
| 1:02.2 | times today. And that for the next 30 days, you'll listen to it once a day. And that way, |
| 1:06.6 | you really get this etched inside of your subconscious mind because the universe is a trip, |
| 1:13.6 | the universe, there's just a flow to it. And as I've said before, we get so caught up in the |
| 1:19.9 | getting side of things that we forget about the giving, what we can give. And sometimes we |
| 1:25.4 | stop giving because we get into that scarcity mindset. We feel like if we give, it's never going |
| 1:30.1 | to come back, but giving, there's an energy to giving. And of course, energy is not supposed to |
| 1:35.7 | stagnate. It's not supposed to sit. Energy is supposed to flow. And so when you stop giving, |
| 1:42.4 | you stop that flow of energy. And when you do that, life gets really, really challenging. |
| 1:49.0 | And so I hope you enjoy today's message. And I hope again, you listen to it over and over and over |
| 1:54.9 | and over and over again. Here's Les Brown. |
| 2:09.6 | Whatever you give, it's going to come back. Now, it might not come back through that channel, |
| 2:15.3 | but it's going to come back wide because it is a law. Whatever you give, it's going to come |
| 2:22.0 | back. Now, all of us here are saying, as you're so, so sure you reap. And we usually, we use that |
| 2:26.9 | in a negative context, but let's look at the positive side of that. That if you sow some good stuff |
| 2:32.6 | out here, if you make it your business, how you give your life to give the best that you have, |
| 2:38.8 | to give love, to give encouragement, to give help, to give support, if that's what your life is |
