How to Coach Yourself and Others Techniques For Coaching | Page 329

Yes, it is contradictory! How can you sort it out? First and
foremost, recognize that people are different from you and
from each other. Be mindful of the Golden Rule, “Do unto others as you
would have them do unto you.” But be even more mindful of the
Platinum Rule, “Do unto others as they would have you do unto them.”
Pay attention to how others respond to you and, when
possible, when you can do so without violating your own
principles, treat them as they expect and wish to be
treated.
