     As positive steps to better with others, keep in mind the following capsule course in human relations:

  • SPEAK GENTLY TO PEOPLE. Be skillful in getting your ideas across. There is nothing as nice as a cheerful word of greeting.
  • SMILE at people. There is power in a smile. What sunshine is to flowers, a smile is to humanity.
  • CALL PEOPLE BY NAME. The sweetest music to anyone's ears is the sound of his own name.
  • BE FRIENDLY. If you would have friends, be friendly.
  • LISTEN attentively and patiently.
  • BE GENUINELY INTERESTED in other person and his problems. You can like everybody if you try.
  • BE GENEROUS WITH PRAISE, reserved with flattery, cautious with criticism.
  • RESPECT others personality and individuality.
  • BE CONSIDERATE of the feelings of others. It opens the door to their hearts.
  • BE THOUGHTFUL of the opinions of others. There aree three sides to a controversy -- yours, the other fellow's and the right side.
  • BE ALERT to give service. What counts in life is what we do for others.
Human relations are caring and sharing.
Attention and compassion play a big role.
Always follow the "golden rule."
