Use your sense of humor in moderation. It is not funny to be funny ALL the time. A person who cracks jokes too often, becomes tiresome to others. Use your sense of humor with a kind heart. Avoid mean and racist jokes. They might elicit a laugh but leave a bitter aftertaste.
Sense of humor in moderation
June 21st, 2010Remembering names
June 21st, 2010Pay attention during the introduction. Take a few second to simply rehearse and repeat the name of the new person you meet. Make a mental note. Maybe rhyming it , such as Ruth has an attitude ….or Maureen is like a queen…
May I have your attention, please?
June 21st, 2010Today, texting is one of the most impolite actions that youngsters do while with people. Please leave it for when you are alone ONLY.
It’s respectful to focus on the event. Whether we are with others, in conversation, at the table , attending a performance or hearing the priest.
A compliment is a verbal hug
June 20th, 2010Give sincere compliments. You can say the nice things that you are thinking about your friends. The rule is to be truthful.
People enjoy hearing certain good trait about themselves. Start with”I” to praise an action. “I like how you sing, dance , talk, paint, dress ” and so on.
Let’s make no mistake this with gushing and untrue statements of flattery which we CERTAINLY should avoid.
