How to treat other human beings with respect.

I. Eye contact

First of all, make eye contact with all human beings (especially to those in the service industry) and smile. Say hello, and ask them how they are doing.

When you ride an Uber, opt to sit in the front seat. And chat with the driver, and ask them about their life goals and life dreams.

My favorite line:

What is your life story?

Everyone has a life story to tell.

II. Change yourself

You cannot change the world, but you can change how you treat others.

Some people are poor (monetarily), but rich spiritually.

Others are poor spiritually, but rich (monetarily).

III. Don’t look down or look up to anybody

For me, I try to treat my ‘inferiors’ as my superiors. And I try to treat my ‘superiors’ as my inferiors.

So if someone is rich, I don’t care. I only admire the character of people now– regardless of what their title, position, or how many 0’s they have in their bank account.

IV. How to change the world

And the easiest way to treat others with respect: just smile more. Change the world, one smile at a time.
