10 Commandments of Human Relations
-
Speak to people.
There is nothing as nice as a cheerful word of greeting.
-
Smile at people.
It takes 72 muscles to frown, only 14 to smile.
-
Call people by name.
The sweetest music to anyone's ears is the sound of his own name.
-
Be friendly and helpful.
If you want friends, you must be one.
-
Be cordial.
Speak and act as if everything you do is a joy to you.
-
Be genuinely interested in people.
You can like almost everybody if you try.
-
Be generous with praise...
and cautious with criticisms.
-
Be considerate with the feelings of others.
There are usually three sides to a controversy: Yours, the other fellow's and the right side.
-
Be eager to lend a helping hand.
Often it is appreciated more than you know.
-
Add to this:
a good sense of humor, a huge dose of patience and a dash of humility. This combination will open many doors and the rewards will be enormous.
This are just commandments, I am an advocate of this one. But I firmly believe in the essence of being true to oneself. It would be better if we live with these commandments but I think there would be no better way of making friends or building relationship to others but being ourselves.
