Most of us don’t want others telling us what to do or how to live. Fully afford others this same benefit.
It’s easy to see others’ situations through our own lenses and impose our points of view on them.
It can be difficult to step into their worlds, see things from their perspective, and realize they are acting on their views and their understanding of their situations.
People don’t act the way they do because they think it’s the foolish, ineffective, or inefficient way to approach life. Just like the rest of us, they are acting based on their values, experiences, and vision.
Allow others to make their decisions and live their lives with the same level of understanding and respect you would like them to extend to you.
