Pleasing personality

Pleasing personality

A pleasing personality is apparent in the way a person walks and talks, his tone of voice, the warmth in his behavior and his definitive level of confidence.

A pleasing personality is a combination of a person’s attitude, behavior and his definitive level of confidence.

Wearing a pleasant expression is more important than anything else you wear.

When you are good to others, you are best to yourself.

Show consideration, courtesy and politeness. Thoughtfulness shows a caring attitude.

Excessive talking does not mean communication. Talk less; Say more.

A fool speaks with out thinking and wise man thinks before speaking.

Criticism

Some suggestions for giving criticism that motivates others:

Be specific, rather than saying things like “you always” or “you never”. Vague criticism causes resentment.

Maintain your cool but be firm.

Criticize in private not in public.

Give the opportunity to the other person to explain his side.

Show them how they benefit from correcting their mistakes.

Criticize the performance, not the performer.

Close on a positive note with an appreciation.

Be a volunteer. It builds self-worth.

Helping others as you would expect others to help you gives a feeling of gratification.

The process of giving without any expectations or getting anything in return raises one’s self esteem.
