Great advice from Crazy Dice. I'd only add the idea that giving what you want to experience to others is also a great way to increase the likelihood of receiving that back from others. For example, if you would love for someone to listen to you and hear you without judgment and with compassion, try listening to others and hearing them without judgment and with compassion. In my own experience, I have found that the old cliché which states that you reap what you sow has a fair bit of truth to it.
