Wandering Thought #169: Character
How can we know others well? Mindfully listen to, and note what they say about themselves, about what they will do, and observe their follow-up actions… Are they as described? Do their actions live up to their words? Whether they match or not will tell you if they are genuine or not. Yet, immeasurably much more important than knowing others well is to know yourself well, by using the above to check your own genuineness first.
