"寻找他人的优点,检视自己的缺点"
— Benjamin Franklin
Simplified Meaning:
When you look at other people, try to notice the good things about them. Appreciate their kindness, honesty, or any positive qualities they have. On the other hand, when you think about yourself, pay attention to your own mistakes and areas where you can improve. This way, you see the best in others but stay focused on becoming a better person yourself. For example, imagine you have a friend who is always very patient. Recognize and admire this patience in your friend. At the same time, if you realize you're not very patient, work on your patience. This approach can help you build stronger relationships because you appreciate others more and become a better person yourself. Instead of always criticizing others or ignoring your own faults, this balanced perspective leads to personal growth and more positive interactions with others.
