Everyone is a Potential Teacher

Treat every person that you meet as a potential teacher.

You can learn from a casual conversation with a stranger.

I recently sat next to a woman on a plane from London to Dubai. She had just been fired from her job. She was a single mother with zero support.

I asked her how she felt. She said it was the best thing to have happened to her.
She saw it as an opportunity to pivot her career - a push she needed after 21 years.

It was a reminder that in life, everything happens for a reason.

Every person we meet has a story and lesson to share.

We are often so quick to judge people when we meet them. It happens subconsciously.

You see someone. You hear them speak. You find out something about their background.

Automatically, you make an assessment.

We miss out on the opportunity to expand our consciousness.

Instead, start to practice this:
✨ Active Listening: pay close attention during conversations.
✨ Open-Mindedness: approach each interaction with curiosity and without judgment.
✨ Reflect and Apply: consider how new insights can enhance your life.
