“If someone points out your faults, regard that person as someone who’s pointed out treasure.”
If the person can see the criticism I want to say as treasure, then I can say it.
If not, I need to keep quiet.
I really, really, really need to learn to keep quiet. And part of this is pattern-interrupting, with the question, will they regard this as treasure?
(Mostly, the answer is no. Even if I wish it otherwise, that won't make them see it as treasure.)
