The Law of Increasing Returns

I have read this from one of the newsletter sent by GDI to my email and they were mentioning going for the "extra mile". It was stated that "The Law of Increasing Returns plays a major role in all businesses, and in your personal relationships. This law, simply stated in our own words, means that everything you do has an impact that you'll often feel later down the road of life, and in increasing quantity". I do agree with it, building a good relationship to someone will indeed benefit you in time to come. I don't just look for today but for the future. Now would you spend too much effort today but later on achieve more than you exerted?

Is that a GOOD KARMA, what you sow is what you reap, if you planted good seeds and nurture it, you will harvest a good fruits.I think it should be applied not only in business but throughout our life.It is the attitude/character of people that count most, or our relationship with others. Like for example if you help people without waiting for them to reciprocate what you have done. Its a good deed and if it was a habit to help people in need as long as you can not only financially but morally, maybe that will be the Law of Increasing returns.

I am not familiar about that law but the phrase in understandable. I think it is more applicable to net worker agents. Most effort spent the greater profit in return. A hierarchy of recruits, more recruits the bigger share.

It is applicable in all businesses not just in Multi-Level-Networking. Even in a grocery store, in your simple business this is applicable because people tend to tell others of your good service and customer service.

Back in college, we were discussed about the Law of Diminishing Returs. But I guess the above principle has different perspective. Very interesting. It's nice if we can have a clearer picture on it.
