The Chameleon Quotes

“When you judge the way others act, you send the message that who they are is not okay. In contrast, when you accept someone fully, you validate that person’s worth. Accepting others for who they are, rather than for who you want them to be, replaces judgment with acceptance. This acceptance creates the foundation for a meaningful connection.”

“Sometimes the opposite of great wisdom is more great wisdom. When it comes to virtues such as kindness, respect, and fairness, you should treat others how you want to be treated. When you do that, those virtues will be returned to you in abundance. But when you share information, provide instructions, or offer praise, you should treat others how they want to be treated. You see, both statements are true.”
