Respect for thought

Criticizing and objecting to everything means an attempt to destruction. If you do not like something, try to make something better than it. Being destructive causes ruins, while being constructive brings about prosperity.

Give value to every word in a meeting. Do not immediately reject those that do not conform to your ideas. Think that the idea might have been expressed from a different viewpoint, and be patient until the end!
