Several weeks ago you and I began a little gift exchange—Chris and I decided to “gift” something important to you and your business for the seven weeks leading up to the holidays.
Over the past three weeks you’ve received the Gifts of Honoring Your Clients, Allowing, and What’s Hot and Not. This week your gift is a little different.
Your Gift is actually giving a gift—a specific gift—to someone you know and love.
Your Gift this week is the Gift of Helping a Cancer Patient.
This has become particularly near and dear to my heart this year because two of my very dearest friends were diagnosed with cancer. What I know is that recovering from cancer is emotionally draining not just for the patient, but also for their support system. Recovery and support are exhausting physically and emotionally and mentally.
I have learned first-hand what I’ve known intellectually—that one of the most important requirements for recovery is maintaining a positive attitude. I’ve also learned that that is easier to say than do.
I wanted to help my friends, and in my digging I uncovered a “gift” that has enabled both cancer patient and their support people to turn their daily attitudes towards more positive things, to conquer that little voice that says “I’m sick” or “I have cancer,” or worse. That little voice that inhibits healing and recovery.
And this gift really worked.
You probably have someone in your life who is recovering from cancer or supporting someone in recovery. Let’s help them, too.
Here’s what I’m asking you to do. If you know someone who is recovering from cancer, if you know someone supporting someone with cancer, give them this Gift. Give them this Gift.
One person every minute of every day is diagnosed with cancer. The odds are, unfortunately, really good that one of your loved ones has been diagnosed or someone you care about is the caregiver for a cancer survivor.
Let’s make them all cancer thrivers.
Let’s make them all cancer thrivers.
While we want to see cancer stamped out in our life time, that’s a big task. It will take some time.
We want to make a change today. The best way we know how to do that is to change your friend or loved one, transform their attitude and mind-set using something that really works. Really works.
The best way we know how to do that is with this Gift.
Plus Chris and I want to take it one step farther. For every TGI Pro that is sold between now and the end of the year, we’ll donate $50 to two great cancer foundations: the Susan G Komen and the Jimmy V Foundations.
Cancer responds to love. Your friends respond to your love. Let’s make this small difference for every person out there.
Go forth and do great things (and this is a really great thing),
Martha Hanlon and Chris Williams
P.S. Yes, the page The page we’re sending you to is long. It’s long because it provides so much valuable information to cancer survivors. Maybe info your friend should read, too?
