Practice empathy.

If someone is annoying you, try to think of the best reason they could have for acting the way they do, and behave as if it were fact. Being cruel to people will never earn you favors, while an act of kindness can endear you to someone for a lifetime.

Yes. You never know what is going on in someone’s life or with their health. Assume they have a good reason for whatever they are doing. You will never be sorry for doing that. If you are mean to someone and then find out what is going on with them, then you will feel horrible.
