“Ten suggestions for Getting Along Better with People”

 

Here are some useful tips to live by when building relationships, building your personal brand and interacting within your various networks:

 

Guard your tongue – say less than you think.

Make promises sparingly but keep them faithfully.

Never let an opportunity pass to say a kind word.

Be interested in others, their pursuits, work and families.

Be cheerful – don’t dwell on minor aches and small disappointments.

Keep an open mind – discuss, don't argue. Disagree without being disagreeable.

Discourage gossip – it’s destructive.

Be careful of others' feelings.

Pay no attention to ill-natured remarks about you. Live so that nobody will believe them.

Don’t be anxious about getting credit. Just do your best and be patient.
