Become an Anthropologist

“Anthropology is a science dealing with a man and his origins. In this strategy, however,I”ll conveniently redefine anthropology as “being interested”, with judgment,in the way other people choose to live and behave”. This strategy is geared toward developing your compassion, as well as a way of becoming more patient. Beyond that, however, being interested in the way other people act is a way of replacing judgments with loving-kindness. When you are genuinely curious about the way someone reacts or the way they feel about something, it’s unlikely that you will be annoyed. In this way,becoming an anthropologist is a way of becoming less frustrated by the actions of others”.
