"People are people. Just treat them that way".. What are a great meaningful sentence. Instead of becoming freak on the celebrities and others we have to think that they are also people. Thanks for sharing a wonderful post Mr.Chris. I will follow this hereafter.

Great post. And one that everyone can learn from — both those who keep themselves on pedastols, and those who think they are nobodies. Both need to hear these words… And yes, Chris, I do believe you treat everyone as equally important… :)

Here’s the post that’s been festering in my mind for months now, only I’ve decided to create a video about this very subject. Chris is right that it’s not simple to think that “people are people”. I’ve connected with or met a lot of amazing people over the last 16 years, but one thing I realized early on is that they’re no different from either of us.

CEOs, “A-list bloggers”, celebrities, politicians and others all live and breathe the same. We all function on a very basic level in life as human beings. Everything else are extensions of our identity and existence (fame, fortune, relationships, etc.) It is our perception of these people which make them different (in our minds). Surprisingly, a lot of these people are truly average joes — And I’ve met all types of them to know.

It’s best to interact with these people like you would a friend — Which is keeping the interaction simple, friendly and down-to-earth.

Thanks for posting this, Chris.

A quick story, if I may…
I first met Chris at BlogWorldExpo in 2007. We spoke for no more than a minute. We then met again at BWE 2008, roughly 11 months after our first meeting. I was standing at a table talking to somebody, he walks up and when there was a break in the convo, Chris says to me, “Didn’t we meet last year at BWE?” Now for me, this was a highlight moment. Somebody I had been following online and was a fan of recognized me in 1 second after meeting for less than a minute almost a year prior.

This speaks volumes to the type of guy Chris is.

Chris was gracious enough to come speak at WordCamp:Las Vegas. Every time I tried to thank him for coming, he would thank me for putting the event on and ALLOWING him to be part of it.

Chris is as down-to-Earth as they come. A class act all the way. I’m glad we had a chance to chat this past weekend and only hope that we get a chance to do it again real soon.
