Episode 4: Paying It Forward

The Life of Dads Podcast

###Show Notes: "Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness. Kindness in giving creates love.” - Lao Tzu This week on the podcast we brought a special guest R.P.([e-mail]) the Founder of the ChiveVA(https://www.facebook.com/groups/theCHIVEVA/). Giving does not necessarily mean giving out money or material items. People give not because they have but because they have that inherent urge to give. In fact, many well-known philanthropists did not start their charity work when they got rich. They probably didn’t know that they would become rich even when they started charitable work. Even without any material gift to offer, sharing your ideas can have immense personal benefits. Ideas can transform others greatly. Many great things that have been achieved in the world emanated from simple ideas. The benefit of sharing your ideas is that the effect will somehow boomerang back to you. By listening to your own ideas repeatedly as you share with others, you may eventually be inclined to put them in practice yourself with wonderful results. You will be unlocking your own potential of self fulfilment. It may eventually seem like a miracle but that is how selfless giving works. By giving out what you have without expecting anything in return, you start living a meaningful life. You get to realise your true calling in a life and world full of challenges. If you find meaning in the lives of those in need and do something about it, you will also find meaning in your own life. You find yourself in better health and peace and you achieve more happiness. That is the magic of selfless giving. ##### PROMOS & FEEDBACK If you want to just reach out and chat with us, we are here for you - contact us at [e-mail].

It also will allow you to pick up your wristband early for an Admin. Doing so will save you from standing in line when everyone else tries to come in at once! Tickets: https://chiveva.ticketbud.com/chiveva BLOCK PARTY!!!! So we are the first attempt for a block party at Peninsula Town Center EVER. Tickets will be 15 dollars ahead of time or 20 dollars at the door. However for our sanity and accurate numbers for the Bar, if you plan to attend save 5 bucks and buy early. The ticket will get you access to the closed off area beside the Bar and access to the Band area. The ticket gets you a wristband which gives you access to the Event/Band area. Wristbands will be given at the patio area (which is the event/band area). Note we will still have access to the inside bar and can go between the two. However as of now the outside bar will only have beer in stock. Hotels: Point Plaza Suites is holding 12 rooms with Doubles at $109. (So if you can share a room that’s awesome!) You must CALL to book your hotel. So call them directly at 757-599-4460 and ask to make reservations under "theChive VA Group." **You must make reservation prior to June 12th!** We are trying to work with a few other hotels however there is a Jazz Festival tying up available rooms. Uber: Coming soon Silent Auction: Yes we will have one again, yes it will be awesome like last year.
