Each minute, each hour, each day of ones life, one have the choice of getting the best or the worst out of another person. It is only when u give attention to the whispers of your own conscience that you will be able to decide your actions.
Don't dislike other people because they're different from you.
Two friends went to a cyber cafe very close to their school to make a printout of their assignment. On reaching the cyber cafe, they met quite a number of students who were also making their own print-out. One of the boys was so impatient that he had to push his way through the small crowd and ordered the one of the operators to suspend what he was doing and make his own print out. The operator told the boy that the man had been there before him. Out of anger and impatience, he yelled "I'm running out of time, can't you see I have to submit this assignment before the time elapses?"
The operator ignored his question and kept doing his work.
The man standing beside him replied, "I was here before you let him finish mine, it won't be long then he'll attend to you".
His friend tried to calm him down but out of annoyance, he hushed the young man, insulted him and left the cyber cafe.
Few minutes later, afer he had done his print out elsewhere, the time for him to submit it came. He was directed to the office where the assignments were to be submitted. On getting there, he opened the door and stood awhile transfixed.
We're his eyes deceiving him?
Was it a daydream?
Or could it be a plot? He thought hard for a while before making a move. The young man he insulted was the course coordinator. He felt sorry for himself as he tried to plead with the course coordinator because he knew what fate had befallen him.
It pays to be nice to others.
Respect other people's view while trying to air your view
Appeal to the loftier sentiment of others. Put consideration of others above consideration of yourself especially when you do not have to.
Develop the habit of forbearance.
Make it easy for the other person to say "yes" rather than "no" when he must make the decision for or against you.
A feeling of hate for the people who have done or who are doing the most to help you get ahead is the mark of one doomed to tragic and certain failure.
Rather, teach yourself to think highly of others and you'll be amazed how they'll act towards you.
Let's try to be nice to other people. We never know where we'll meet them next or what may happen next.
