The Italian astronomer Galileo Galilei (1564–1642) once said, “You cannot teach a person anything; you can only help them discover it within themselves.”

There are many ways to help others. You can directly share the knowledge and lessons you’ve learned, or you can support and encourage them as a guide.

Whatever the method, what truly helps someone in need of advice is not forcing your views on them, but speaking and acting with humility and respect.
