Having good manners means being kind. It means considering someone else's viewpoint alongside your own.
The core of good manners is the golden rule: "Treat others as you yourself would want to be treated."
good manners open opportunities to us, turn good first impressions into friendships, and help us experience the world as an enjoyable place on a daily basis.
good manners are simple: They center on respecting those around us, as well as ourselves.
Even when our actions are small, contributing to the good in the world is a powerful thing.
The next time you find yourself being critical of your appearance, admonishing yourself for a small slip-up you made hours ago, or criticizing yourself for not getting more done, performing better, and acting faster, stop. Think of yourself as another person, such as a family member, a dear friend, or a friendly coworker. You wouldn't treat them in such a harsh manner; if you did, they wouldn't want to be around you ever again! So why would you talk to yourself that way? Don't practice bad manners when it come to how you treat yourself.
What's important is that you continue to reach out to other people and give the best of yourself. Generous behavior is its own reward
To a large extent, our lives are made up of interactions with the people around us. Sometimes we forget this.
