I would like to add here, I do not agree with above statements.
Sharing is property or attribute, it has nothing to do success.
Some years back I used to think that there is some secret of trading or some method or may be some trick
, I realised later on the real fact which most of u r aware by now. Eventhough u give biggest secret to someone, it is not not necessary that he will be successful. But u will be more confident as u learnt better while sharing, keep sharing u will get more
Little more: Guru finds his desciple not vice versa
Achey shishya baniye guru apne aap knowledge denge!
Stockstopp, you have said everything in this line.
But there is other side of this view, That I want to share.
Mere bhai, zamana bahut badal gaya hai. Ab to zamana ehsaanfaramoshon ka hai.
Ek to achche shishya milte nahin hain (unke maathe per nahin likha hota ki voh achchey hain), doosre time aane (read seekh jaane) per achche shishya bhi badal jaate hain
This is my practical experience, of my business life. I taught many formulations of chemicals to my customers for free, and when they learnt the 'baarikiyan' of the formulations, I not only lost the business with them, most of them said, arey aapney hamein kya sikhaya, yeh to hamein pehle se aataa tha (you have not taught us anything new, we knew all this beforehand). Aur yeh kissa aaj ka nahin hai, 10 saal purana hai, aur mere dost ab to zamana aur bhi jyada kharaab ho gaya hai, matlabi ho gaya hai.
Thats why I use to say,
Gadhon (read a selfish person) ko jitni marji mewa khila lo (read seekh de do) voh dulatti maarnaa (read bhalaa-buraa kehna) nahi bhoolega.
Why go far
Let me cite the example of our member friends.
I received many pm(s) from them to let them know about the study material on Wolfe Waves (WW). I replied all of them about it but
NONE of them has the courtesy of writing me a thanks in reply, though I got back their pms immediately when I copy paste link from the previous answer, which shows error on clicking.
These all are very small things but all these things pinches you.
