THE GOLD STANDARD

We are familiar with the "Golden Rule: also known as the "ethic of reciprocity". But did you know that it is a fundamental moral principle found in virtually all religions and cultures?

It simply means, "treat others as you would like to be treated." The golden tule has been for several millenniums the most essential basis for the concept of human rights, friendship and success in our personal and professional lives.

In order to apply the golden rule effectively, we need a little knowledge and imagination. We need to understand what effect our actions have on the lives of others. And we need to be able to imagine ourselves accurately in the other person's place on the receiving end of the action.

With knowledge, imagination, and the golden rule, we can all make the world a better place for others and ourselves. So this weekend try adding a little more Golden Rule in your life and enjoy the benefits of the world's most important belief!
