🎁 The gift-buying mistake many of us make
My friend Claire was trying to find a birthday gift for her nephew Ryan.
"He loves cycling, computer games and golf," she said, "but every idea I come up with, I convince myself he probably already has it!"
And that's when I realised something...
The mistake many of us make is buying for the hobby instead of the person.
🚴 The cyclist probably already has cycling gear.
🎮 The gamer probably already has gaming accessories.
⛳ The golfer probably already has golf equipment.
But what about the person behind the hobby?
❤️ The things that make them laugh.
😊 The little quirks you notice.
🎁 The interests, habits and personality that make them who they are.
Sometimes the best gifts come from knowing the person, not becoming an expert in their hobby. ❤️
Have you ever struggled to buy for someone who seems to have everything?
