That's absolutely right Michael. In business as in life, there an old adage that is universally true:

You have to give before you can expect to get."

Fortunately, the great thing about this old and lasting universal truth is that if you give a lot, and do so in an unselfish and truly helpful manner, without taking primary regard for how much you will get in return, then indeed you will receive.

So give of yourself generously in all ways, whether that means with your knowledge, expertise or skills (or all three), and you'll soon be positioned to be ready to receive.

And don't forget to be genuinely grateful when you do receive, and you'll naturally attract even more success!

Pay it forward, and the rest will take care of itself.

Happy JVing!
