17. Be the first to help.
First, make helping others a priority on your agenda. Second, make yourself aware of other people’s needs. Pay attention to what is going on around you and put yourself in the other person’s place. Third, be willing to take a risk.
To apply this principle: Forget about thinking only of what is in it for you. Ask the other person how you can help. Be the first to offer assistance and lend a hand.
