I surprised myself with this one… I always thought of myself as having a deep selfish streak, and quite often found myself compensating by consciously going out of my way to help someone. This of course led to the inevitable feelings of self-loathing when I asked myself, “did I do this for them - or me”?  Anyway, there are two very different people that I recently discovered considered me as a mentor in their careers - with no intent on my part. When my Mom passed away and my sisters and I were going through the house, sorting out what to give away and what to keep, we discovered in her purse a well worn list, titled “What I must do every day.”  Number six on the list was, “do something nice for someone today and if they find out, it doesn’t count.” Hopefully Mom is looking down and saying, “See Mikey, I told you.”
