PROMPT: Tell us about a personal quality, talent, accomplishment, contribution or experience that is important to you.
If I had to choose the quality I value the most it would be my empathetic nature. From a small age my mother would always say to me "try to put yourself in the other person's shoe" So I always tried my best to do so. So much so that it became an involuntary action. This quality has been to me both a blessing and a curse. The negative side being people often take advantage of my kind nature. However the reason I think this is my best quality is because it bring me joy when it is helpful to all around. My ability to put myself in others shoes draws others to my company. I am often described as having the ability to make people comfortably at home as I seem to understand what they are going through.
The reason I value this quality the most is because I know form personal experience how badly a person can sometime wish someone would try to understand their point of view. I often wished others would stop judging and put themselves in my shoes instead of instantly labeling me the "weird girl" just because I disagree with their opinions. So from my own personal experience I know how much it matters when someone is empathetic towards you. Therefore I always try to do to others what few have done to me.
I believe that if everyone took a moment to put themselves in another persons shoe it would stop numerous world problems such as war, hunger, violence etc. So I plan to lead by example as I believe if everyone possessed the quality I have the world would be a much better place.
