If we see people as small, untalented and insignificant, and we treat them that way, they become worse.
But if we treat people for what they could be, for what they are capable of, we encourage the spark in them to be more and do more.
I bet your favorite people aren’t the ones who are always reminding you of your shortcomings, but the ones who believe in what you can do, whether you were doing it or not; the ones who encouraged you by their very attitude toward you.
How are you being to those that are underperforming their potential?

Thank you. Great thought for me to read today.
