Better ideas to think about that improves your etiquette.
The English teachers we had back in
the school days taught us about this thing they described as ‘having etiquette’
and how it should improve our relationship between each other in the society.
And what do you think it actually mean in real life, or have you used it before,
how did it help you? May be those questions have positive answers but to many,
I guess, it needs much explanation and that’s one of the reasons I wrote this
article. Therefore, to start with, the term etiquette simply means the
customary code of polite behavior in society or among members of a particular
profession or group. Hence having etiquette means having the customary code of
polite behavior in the society.
Now this should guide our relationship with
friends, brothers, sisters, etc. since no one amongest us is ready for
embarrassments in the midst and site of others. So what are these things that
improve our etiquette in the society today? I am going to list with descriptions
and short paragraph for further explanation. They include;
1. Learn when to say SORRY
This is the most important part of our day
to day conversations, but it’s a surprise that almost 96% of us never use it.
By saying this, of course I don’t mean that you should always be sorry during a
conversation, but at list learn when to use it and why, don’t just avoid it
completely. Avoiding it also paints your character and someone completely and
automatically understands you in another version.
Saying sorry does not take you down just for
using it, in fact it portrays in a polite nature, something that everyone
always dreams of.
2. Always speak your truth and stand
firmly with it
This is another factor that always weighs
people down without even knowing. A lot of people speak lies and statistics
says that 99% of mankind has told lies in one way or another. So when I speak
of this, do not exclude yourself because it’s something natural and normal and
affects every healthy piece of mind. Speaking of etiquette, try to limit your
lies that you tell people and know this, that speaking the truth gives you a
title that most cannot afford to have.
People with this title are less in the
society today. I would request you to at list speak your truth and earn the title
to be one of those who are recognized with the titles. Remember, speaking costs
you nothing other than your courage, so gather courage, speak the truth, win
your title and live a peaceful life that is the pattern. Another thing is to
stand by your truth, remember, truths are unchangeable but you can only change
it when you are not courageous enough. How easy it is for you to stand by your
truth determines your level of etiquette
3. Minimize your talking and maximize
your actions
This is the factor that affects people,
mostly the male category. This happens in a way that you have so many promises
but none of them are ready to be fulfilled. This is more popular in a number of
guys, and the problem with such kind of people is that they mostly never accept
corrections and if you try correcting, he can easily engage you in a fight. The
main problem is that, for a community to be complete, you cannot miss such
group of residents.
Speaking of respect, you find that these
kinds of people gain less respect from members in the society since no one is
ready to associate with someone who cannot follow up to his words, in shot they
are regarded as liars because they speak of things they are not sure about.
Finding yourself in such a category of people becomes tricky since rates you as
having low etiquette so dealing with it will automatically raise it up, try it.
4. Work on your self-dependence
Depending on yourself helps improve the way
people look at you, unlike having to depend others for your day to day survival,
they tend to see you as hopeless beggar, it is always a worse situation to find
yourself in as your freedom is also minimized especially the freedom of speech
where you find that there are some words that you are limited to say because
you think may be the support may withdrawn from you and you will end up
suffering something that you do not dream of. This is also another situation
that is so miserable to find yourself surviving in.
Speaking of respect, the respect you gain
from these people is less since they have a feeling that whatever they do to
you, you will still need them. To echo on etiquette, your behaviors are always
disgusting in the view of such kind of individuals. I wish it was in my power
to advise you to just be yourself and all these troubles will be gone within
less duration of time.
5. Do not announce your problems
Is there really life without problems on
this planet we call earth that we tend to stay on and survive on? I guess no,
there is no such kinds of life on earth may be let’s wait for that which awaits
us in heaven. That is to simply say that everybody undergoes through hardships
in this life but most of them do not go place to place announcing to other
people for help so I wonder where you get the courage to announce your problems
from. Learn to handle your problems by yourself to avoid being disrespected
from the society.
6. Keep secret your goals
This will mark the end our list today, may
be you can feel free to add more in the comment tab below that you know of that
I did not mention. Speaking of goals, I understand that the term ‘creating your
goal’ is all over the articles you ever red concerning success. So I am not
going to state deeply into that but just to let you know that, by the moment
you speak about your goal, it is clear that you are less likely to succeed in
it because you will lose focus afterwards
