The attitude of others towards you is the reflection of their state of mind.

About This Quote

The attitude of others towards you is the reflection of their state of mind means that how others look at you is a direct reflection of how they see themselves. The way others treat you is a barometer of their confidence in themselves and their view of you. This does not mean that people are right in thinking this way, for no one can be completely objective about the way they think. It does mean that what others think of you defines who you are to them, and vice versa.
