Minor shortcomings in employees are normal. That is, coming late to work, not completing assignments on time, forgetfulness. Do not rush to scold them harshly at once, to accuse them with stern words. A leader helps to correct these shortcomings: if necessary, he reminds every time, gives advice, but does not think about giving up on the employee. Just as a patient who has the desire to get better finds healing easily, an employee who wants to grow draws the right conclusions from reprimands and keeps building his skills. The years and the roads train a person. It is the same in the family: let us not be merciless to those under us; let us bring them to maturity carefully, without breaking them. If our elders seem to go too far in their strictness, let us make dua for them, let us not show displeasure, and let us rack our brains over getting rid of the flaw that has been pointed out to us. Sometimes we must live for a long time, even all our lives, turning a blind eye to other people’s small mistakes — after all, we go on living while bearing with, forgiving and finding excuses for our own faults and sins! Lies, treachery, betrayal, living off what is unlawful are another matter; such vices, even without your or our intervention, pull their owner by the feet down into the swamp and sink him in that swamp. Let us think about correcting our own shortcomings, let us try to understand and forgive those around us — who knows, perhaps things will turn out well!
