“When you don't talk down to your audience, then they can grow with you”
— Prince

Simplified Meaning:
If you treat people with respect and speak to them as equals, they will be more likely to listen, learn, and improve over time. For example, think of a teacher who believes their students are capable and talks to them in a way that acknowledges their potential. Instead of making the students feel small or unimportant, the teacher encourages them to think deeply and ask questions. Because the students feel respected, they are more engaged and motivated to learn. This idea can be used in everyday interactions as well. If you always assume others are intelligent and capable, it helps everyone improve and grow together. Respectful communication builds stronger relationships and encourages mutual growth.
