Learn how to learn from those you disagree with, or even offend you. See if you can find the truth in what they believe.
Being able to listen well is a superpower. While listening to someone you love keep asking them “Is there more?”, until there is no more.
Everyone is shy. Other people are waiting for you to introduce yourself to them, they are waiting for you to send them an email, they are waiting for you to ask them on a date. Go ahead.
You are what you do. Not what you say, not what you believe, not how you vote, but what you spend your time on.
Experience is overrated. When hiring, hire for aptitude, train for skills. Most really amazing or great things are done by people doing them for the first time.
