Keep in Mind
• Our individuality comes with our unique attributes and
characteristics. Some can easily be seen physically while some
can be manifested through actions and behavior which may
indicate values and personalities.
• There is harmony in diversity and we can all keep it that way
if we learn to accept one another as we are. There are
healthy ways to deal with our individual differences which
would work for everyone’s advantage.
Healthy Ways to Deal with Individual Differences
Healthy Ways to Deal with
Individual Differences
a. Accept that we are all
different. Don’t assume
that your preferences
would always be the same
as those of your peers or
friends. Remember, even
twins have differences.

Individual Differences
b. Use your similarities with
other people to strike a
harmonious relationship with
them. While you acknowledge
that people are different from
another, there are also
commonalities which you may
take advantage to establish
positive relationship with them.

c. Be open-minded with
others. You can always
learn from the
experiences of your
friends and peers and
they can also do the
same with you.

d. Try to consider where
others are coming from.
Your family set-up may be
different from what your
friends have. People might
have grown up in a province
or in a highly urbanized city.
Healthy Ways to Deal with
Individual Differences
e. If your differences with
others are getting in the
way, try to have a common
ground. You cannot impose
your beliefs, values and
culture to others, the same
way that they cannot do that
to you.
• Always remember that you co-exist with
others. There are things that you cannot
control like the people around you but you
can always manage the way you deal with
them.
The choice is always with you, either you
make the most out of those individual
differences and have a happy life or you
make that as your limitations.
Share your Thoughts & Feelings
• Create a slogan or poster on
unconditional acceptance of others
and respect for individual
differences. You may post it online or
physically in the most noticeable
area at home. Use a short bond
paper and coloring materials.
