14. Moral Values
We shouldn’t judge people through the prism
of our own stereotypes.
Instead of stereotyping somebody, one might gather more information
on the certain individual first, before drawing to conclusions.
Believe in Yourself
Despite of the shortcoming you have, believe in what you have right now.
Helping others
“No one has ever become poor by giving.” ― Anne Frank, diary of Anne Frank
In helping others, we can often get a better view of what we're capable of.
It will also help you feel better about yourself.
