"When you point your finger at someone, there are four fingers pointing back at you!"
If someone seems to be struggling, graciously offer to help, or to be a "sounding board" for a question or an idea, or "a second pair of eyes." If the offer is declined, just-as-graciously go your way with a friendly smile.
Whatever you do, preserve that person's pride. "They will not allow you to hear them scream," but they will scream nonetheless, and you have (so to speak ...) "sinned against them." Being supportive, helpful, and courteous goes a long way.
I agree with a lot of this, but for the record, I just tested pointing and I only have three fingers pointing back at me. Am I doing something wrong? Am I missing a finger??
