The Ten Commandments Of How To Get Along With People
- Keep skid chains on your tongue; always say less than you think. Cultivate a low
persuasive voice. How you say it often Counts more than what you say.
- Make promises sparingly and keep them faithfully, no matter what it costs you.
- Never let an opportunity pass to say a kind and encouraging thing to or about
somebody. Praise good work done, regardless of who did it. If criticism is needed,
criticize helpfully, never spitefully.
- Be interested in others; interested in their pursuits, their welfare, their homes and
families. Make merry with those who rejoice; with those who weep, mourn. Let everyone
you meet, however humble, feel that you regard them as important.
- Be cheerful. Keep the corners of your mouth turned up. Hide your pains, worries and
disappointments under a smile. Laugh at good stories and learn to tell them.
- Preserve an open mind on all debatable questions. Discuss, but not argue. It is a mark
of superior minds to disagree and yet be friendly.
- Let your virtues, if you have any, speak for themselves and refuse to talk of another's
vices. Discourage gossip. Make it a rule to say nothing of another unless it is something
good.
- Be careful of another's feelings. Wit :ind humor at the other fellow's expense are rarely
worth the effort, and may hurt where least expected.
- Pay no attention to ill-natured remarks about you. Simply live that nobody will believe
them. Disordered nerves and a bad digestion arc a common cause of backbiting.
- Don't be anxious about your dues. Do your work, be patient and keep your disposition
sweet, forget self, and you will be rewarded.
