The Gift of Paying It Forward

A Monthly Curated Newsletter

When was the last time you received kindness from somebody? When was the last time you extended an act of kindness to someone else, and to what end? As it turns out, there can be tremendous merits and outcomes in paying forward a kindness received with a good deed to somebody else, especially when done out of gratitude. The concept of "Paying It Forward" is nothing new, but in our world, I believe we could do with more compassion and selflessness as it brings out the best in us.

The Art of Paying it Forward Without Spending a Dime

When we pay it forward we commit an act of selflessness that transcends our connection to other humans on the planet, elevating the human experience in a positive way. Whether it’s a showing of kindness, faith, or even compassion, it all makes a difference and can potentially trigger a chain reaction of reciprocated behavior.

The Power of Altruism

Classical economics adopts a model that says people are primarily driven by material self-interest. Political science assumes that people are driven to maximize their power. But this worldview is clearly wrong. In real life, the push of selfishness is matched by the pull of empathy and altruism. This is not Hallmark card sentimentalism but scientific fact: As babies our neural connections are built by love and care. We have evolved to be really good at cooperation and empathy. We are strongly motivated to teach and help others.

After meeting more than 10 insurance agents, we settled with her because of her top niche service. Over the years, we have built the trust and she has also gained my parents' confidence. She always keeps in contact with us, rarely missed our calls, always have answers, gifts us once in a while and settle our claims super fast. Without her, I don't know what will happen to my family. Thank you Karna! <3 May God Protect & Bless you and family. #bestinsuranceagentever #agentturnedfamilyfriend

Denise, Business Owner

Karna is one of the best agents I have met. She can very well understand your requirements and identify plans that best suit me at different stages of my life planning. Well-equipped with knowledge, she is able to greatly assist not only for personal requirements but also for my business. She takes effort to simplify things so that it is so easy and clear to understand, especially helpful if you’re not someone who likes or are familiar with financial terms and concepts. A very responsible and professional agent who you can always trust and rely on at any time. Also a sincere and genuine person who felt like a really long time friend! Thankful for her help in getting my life well-planned and protected. Highly recommend her service! Two thumbs up 👍👍

Jennifer, Consultant

Karna is a very responsible, kind and cheerful agent. She knows her product well and will recommend the most suitable one. She also puts in extra effort to rearrange all (including other companies) policies i have into a file so that I have a clear idea on how well and how much I am covered. Thank you for your effort babe <3 <3 <3

Anand, VP

I got introduced to Karna & Kamen via a facebook ad late 2018 and did not have much expectations before the meet and just wanted to give a try. Instead of trying to sell what they wanted to sell me, they tried to understand my needs & constraints and tried to get me a product that would suit my needs. Since then they’ve helped me with all my insurance needs.
