This is...Kim, I was thinking the same thing as you. This is great advice for life in general. There are "givers" and "takers" in this life but to walk the line in between is like walking a tight rope. Like Jane says, "guard your time" and be aware of the ones who are just "takers". I've met quite a few.

Many hours of my time--and a lot of valuable advice given--and not one word of thanks.

I don't like to hurt people's feelings and saying No doesn't come easy to me, but I have to remember the same people who invade don't necessarily have the same emotions as I do and probably won't react in the way I did.
