Some Vital Principles on Dealing Successfully With People

The greater part of instruction is being reminded of what you already know- Greek Philosopher, Plato.

1. Be yourself, regardless of whom you're dealing with.
Don't shout back at her because she shouted at you. Be the calm person that you are.
Don't say "he refused to help me the other day, so I won't help him too". Be the kind person that you are.
Don't be the mirror image of the other person.

2. Be merciful.
When you think you're helping others, you're helping yourself.
Treat people with kindness- your family, friends, acquaintances and even strangers.
That stranger may turn out to be an 'angel'.

3. Don't be quick to judge.
What you saw or heard about that person may not be enough for you to conclude.
There's usually more to it than meets the eye.
You may be wrong; just hold your peace.

4. Don't condemn.
No matter how deplorable or contemptible someone's case may be.
You are not the standard; everybody needs Grace.

5. Be forgiving.
Being forgiving is a choice, not a talent.
Unforgiveness is like swallowing poison and expecting the other person to die.
It may be hard, but for your own good, always choose to forgive.
Be forgiving, so that you too can be forgiven.

6. Be a giver.
You directly or indirectly make life easier for someone when you give.
Being a giver has nothing to do with having plenty money. It's about being giving-minded.
Whatever you give comes back to you in multiple folds.
Always take advantage of opportunities to give.

Make the most of today. Many of us wish we had the opportunity to go back to the past and make right some things we did wrong. We realise that our lives would have been better off today if we had done some things right yesterday. Now, what is today? I define today as the tomorrow of yesterday and the yesterday of tomorrow. Correct, isn't it? This time yesterday, you referred to today as tomorrow, and at this time tomorrow, you will be calling today yesterday! It is rightly said that we are who and where we are today, because of our actions, decisions and choices of yesterday. That also means that, who and where we will be tomorrow, will be the result of our actions, decisions and choices of today! One of the traits of successful people, is that they use lessons learnt from yesterday's mistakes to make wise decisions today, towards getting their desired results tomorrow. Sir John C. Maxwell calls it "failing forward". It's never late to be right! ...
