#12: Treat Others How You Want to Be Treated
Even though Luke received much positive attention and feedback online, people weren’t singing his praises at school. It is hard to understand as a kid because all we want is to be accepted by everyone. But, when people make fun of you or are mean to you, they always have something to hide. Whether they are unhappy, jealous, or even bored, there is always an unrelated root cause.
It wasn’t easy, but Luke managed to get past the mean remarks and the unwanted negative attention while not caring what other people thought about him. He knew that he had worked hard to create his dream tiny home and had a lot of support online. As long as he had a clear goal in mind and a community that backed him, he didn’t need the validation of kids at school.
