Many times people ask me, ‘Why should we work with these people?  They are not integrated, they are not authentic. They are liars, cheats.’

I tell them, ‘Come on, if you are not able to handle their failures, you will not be able to handle your failures.  Because you are not able to handle your failures, you are not able to handle their failures.’

Giving up on people will make you give up on you, which is worse than suicide. Giving up on yourself is spiritual suicide.  Understand, giving up on others and giving up on yourself is spiritual suicide.  Giving up on others is social suicide.  Giving up on yourself is a spiritual suicide and if you give up on others, I guarantee, you will give up on you.  I don’t want to even reduce the spirit by saying “social suicide”.  No,   giving up on others is also spiritual suicide because, if one happens, the other will happen.  Giving up on yourself, if it is done, giving up on others also will happen.
