How to live :Good marriages, good business relationships and good friendships are based on Christ's golden rule. Bottom line: - show people that you value them! John Maxwell tells of a new pastor who shared the following rules with his congregation.
a) If you have a problem with me, come and see me privately. I'll do the same for you
b) If someone else has a problem with me and comes to you, send them to me. I'll do the same
c) If someone will not come to me, say, "Let's go see him together". I'll do the same
d) Be careful how you interpret me - I'd rather do that. It's too easy to misinterpret intentions. I'll also be careful how I interpret you
e) If it's confidential, do not tell. If you or anyone else comes to me in confidence, I will not tell unless the person is going to harm themselves or someone else; or a child has been physically or sexually abused. I expect the same from you
f) I do not read unsigned letters
g) I do not manipulate; I will not be manipulated; do not let others manipulate you. Do not let others try to manipulate me through you
h) When in doubt, just say so. If I can answer it without misrepresenting something or breaking a confidence, I will.
And one final thought: if people can still construe that you are taking advantage of them, even after you have had a chance to explain your motives, you need to rethink your idea.
Whatever you want men to do to you do also to them. (Matthew 7:12)
