If you want friends, be a friend
If you want loyalty, be loyal
If you want kindness, be kind
If you want to be praised, give praise
If you want to be noticed, take notice
If you want to be heard, listen
If you donât want to be criticised, donât criticise
If you donât want to be hurt, donât hurt
If you donât want to be scorned, donât scorn
If you ignore others, expect to be ignored
If you frustrate others, expect to be frustrated
When you fail others, expect failure
If you love otherâs, you will love yourself
If you want to make a big noise, be silent
If you want to be proud, take pride
If you believe in yourself, others will believe in you
If you speak kindly of otherâs, otherâs will speak kindly of you
If you care for others, others will care for you
