Make the world a nicer place with these simple gestures.
- Say “Please” and “Thank You”- Especially to those closest to you.
2. Smile! – At the cashier. The bank teller. Your co-worker. Even if he or she doesn’t smile back.
3. Hold the Door for the Person Behind You- And if someone holds the door for you, always say “thank you”!
4. Step Outside to Answer Phone Calls- Sometimes you have to take the call—but is it always that important? Besides, it’s not so fun to hear your conversation when we’re trapped behind you in line.
5. Give People a Pass- Cranky salesperson? Nasty driver? You have no idea what’s going on with that person right now: Did her dog die? Did he just get bad health news? You don’t have to reward ugly behavior with your own nastiness, which only perpetuates the cycle.
6. Look At the Person Who Is Speaking to You- Seriously. Look up from your smartphone!
7. Let Someone Go In Front of You In Line- We promise, it’ll make his or her day.
8. Cough or Sneeze Into Your Elbow- This year’s flu season is brutal—make sure you’re doing what you can to avoid spreading germs.
9. Learn People’s Names- Here are some easy ways to remember names.
10. Handwrite Thank-You Notes- He or she took the time to send the gift; take the time to show you care.
11. Put Your Smartphone Away During Meals- Right. Now.
12. Be On Time- We’re all busy, so please stop making people wait for you.
13. Clean Up After Your Pet- It’s just plain icky to leave it.
14. Always RSVP-And do it right away before you forget.
15. Ask Before Posting- Not everyone wants to be all over social media, and you’re not a reporter— so stop spreading the news.
