It’s very simple: have the faith in others that you want others to have in you. Doubt yourself but give your friends your courage and hope. Don’t give people your doubt (about them) when they are already doubting themselves. And vice versa. Give to others what you need. Give to others what you get. Give to others what you want.

It’s simple but it ain’t always easy. I aspire to this, though.
