How Does it Feel to be Them?
Imagine you woke tomorrow as Tiger Woods or the CEO of Toyota. It’s
easy to vilify or judge them for their missteps. We project all sorts of
assumptions onto their story. We quickly forget they are human beings.
Can you empathize with their situation? Imagine if your mistakes were
being dissected and discussed by millions of people.
