How kind do you think you are? Try this small experiment and find it out.
We are all seekers, not teachers. And what do seekers do? They seek!There is no comfort zone for seekers. They are always trying new experiments to improve and have no fear of failure. Actually, failure is what gives them the capability of learning. And that makes them stronger.Are you ready to fail? If you are also seeking to be better at being Human, try this small experiment at home. Have fun playing “Truman Show” and “Sherlock Holmes” with yourself and the ones you care.
