Life has taught me to put into practice something that has never failed me: to moderately express my approval of others. This policy always has a positive effect on all sorts of people. Soft and gentle words work wonders on the hearts of people.
The author of the book ‘How to Win Friends’ states that an important factor in attracting people to you is to praise and compliment them inordinately. I do not agree: moderation and justice are called for: one should neither flatter others artificially nor be dry and distant with them.
Sure, we could take the path of looking down upon people with supercilious airs: but as a result, it is we who will lose our friends and not them who will lose us. If you are not friendly, people will soon find someone else to make acquaintance with.
In life, I have been especially impressed by those who are charismatic in their dealings-those who seem to attract others charismatic in their dealings-those who seem to attract others magnetically by their good character. They always wear a smile for others, they have honest tongues and their hearts are free from jealousy and rancor.
Thanks for reading through and Have a nice weekend!
