The document discusses how the world would be dull if everyone was exactly alike, and emphasizes the importance of accepting people for who they are. It then shares an anecdote about how the author has been able to advance in their career by greeting and acknowledging every person, no matter how small the interaction.

1. What if everyone in the world was exactly alike? What if
everyone talked the same, acted the same, listened to
the same music, and watched the same T.V. programs?
The world would be extremely dull! I believe it’s
important to accept people for who they are.

2. I work at a company where there are about a gazillion
employees. I can’t say that I know them all by name,
but I know my fair share of them. I think that almost
all of them know me. I’d say that’s the reason I’ve
been able to go wherever it is I’ve made it to in this
world. It’s all based on one simple principle: I believe
that every single person deserves to be
acknowledged, however small or simple the greeting.

3. According to Harvard University, thirty-six percent of all
Americans could be facing crippling loneliness
(mcc.gse.harvard.edu). If you do the math, that could
mean a staggering 120,062,168 in the United States are
lonely—based on the current population of around
333,506,023 people. All it takes, however, is one
supportive and present person in your life to ease that
loneliness. I believe that everybody in this world needs a
somebody that they can lean on for support.
