Negative shame is accompanied by guilt and self-denigration, it is pointless and no help to us, in fact it will cause us harm. Positive shame is when we have harmed ourselves or anyone else and feel sorry for having done so. This allows us to grow from our mistakes.
When you make demands on others without understanding them, you thwart their development. Forcing others to fulfill your ambitions destroys their individuality. Pushing your will and ideas on others on to how to conduct their life will only bring their resentment.
Attaining virtue is done by self-cultivation, and by relinquishing your negative habits and attitudes. With utmost sincerity and living in the real world, extend your virtue to all. This will help you achieve self mastery, and you will be able to help others do the same.
When taking on a new enterprise employ virtuous people and make the best use of all resources available to you. Success can be achieved when a leader is sincere, trusts others, and works with people in a spirit of cooperation with a unity of purpose.
Quote: When circumstances are favorable to advance, do not lose the opportunity.
