“If you can't ask for help without self-judgment, you cannot offer help without judging others”

Simplified Meaning:
If you feel bad about yourself when you ask for help, you'll likely feel the same way about others who need help. For example, imagine you need help with homework but think it means you're not smart. When a friend asks for help, you might think they're not smart too. This way of thinking makes it hard to support each other without feeling bad. It creates a situation where everyone feels judged. So, to be truly helpful to others, learn to ask for help yourself without feeling ashamed. This creates a friendly and supportive environment where no one feels judged for needing help.
