1. Great post Lauren!

   I agree with Ron. A lost hour of work will hardly make a difference in your finances, but true wealth comes from a pay-it-foward mentality. As Zig Ziglar is quoted, “You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help other people get what they want.”
   Thanks for the story this morning!

   1. What a great quote!!

2. Lauren, love the post!

   I would challenge your comment that “Well, for one, we would probably be a little poorer financially.”, because, as the old saying goes “a rising tide raises all ships”.

   With this minga concept, you may be giving up a hour (or day or ..) of wage/sales, but with the community investment you are making, I believe it will pay multiples of dividends (monetary and otherwise) down the road.

   Thanks for sharing this great word and I hope you find a great minga opportunity this week.

   Sincerely,

   Ron

   1. So true, Ron! Thank you for the comment. I couldn’t agree more. Cultivating minga is worth much more than whatever it costs you.
