Your value grows when you share it
We believe value isn't a finite resource that gets used up when shared. It's more like a muscle that grows stronger the more you use it.
When we hold our insights, knowledge, or support close to our chests, we operate from a mindset of scarcity—as if sharing what we have diminishes our own portion. But our collective experience has shown us something different.
Each time we freely offer our expertise to a colleague, each time we mentor someone new in our field, each time we contribute to open-source projects or community initiatives—we don't end up with less. Instead, we gain connections, perspective, and often new insights we wouldn't have discovered alone.
The act of sharing itself creates more value. Our networks expand, our reputations strengthen, and our skills sharpen through teaching and collaboration. The value we give returns to us multiplied through different channels.
We've learned that genuine abundance comes from circulation, not accumulation. The most successful among us aren't those who hoard resources but those who generously distribute them, creating ecosystems of shared growth.
This perspective transforms how we approach our work, our relationships, and our communities. When we view value as something that expands through use rather than depletes, we become more generous, more collaborative, and ultimately, more prosperous—both individually and collectively.
