Proven Ways to Get Along Better With Everyone:

 

-Before you say anything to anyone, ask yourself 3 things: Is it true? Is it kind? Is it necessary?

-Make promises sparingly and keep them faithfully.

-Never miss the opportunity to compliment or say something encouraging to someone.

-Refuse to talk negatively about others; don't gossip and don't listen to gossip.

-Have a forgiving view of people. Believe that most people are doing the best they can.

-Keep an open mind; discuss, but don't argue. (It is possible to disagree without being disagreeable.)

-Forget about counting to 10. Count to 1,000 before doing or saying anything that could make matters worse.

-Let your virtues speak for themselves.

-If someone criticizes you, see if there is any TRUTH to what he is saying; if so, make changes. If there is no truth to the criticism, ignore it and live so that no one will believe the negative remark.

-Cultivate your sense of humor; laughter is the shortest distance between two people.

-Do not seek so much to be consoled, as to console; do not seek so much to be understood, as to understand; do not seek so much to be loved as to love.
