Do You Understand and Fulfill Needs of Others?

One of the golden rules of the therapy profession is that everyone needs at least one person with whom they can openly and unashamedly discuss every little detail – happenings, desires, fears – of their life, whether it is from the past, present, or future.

There are other psychological needs – to be accepted unconditionally, appreciated, recognized, respected, desired, valued, approved of, or complimented – that affect the way we communicate with each other. Listen carefully, ask questions to show that you are genuinely interested and you'll be amazed at the spin-offs from becoming a good question asker and a good listener.

Buddha about Conquering

Your neighbor can be someone living close to you. But what is true is that your neighbor is one of the Light who needs your support as much as you need his."
