I sit and listen to people interacting with others, and often walk away feeling disappointed. Disappointed at the way people talk down to others, and treat people so mean. It takes more time and energy to act mean and unfriendly. HowHard Is To Just Be Nice?

We live in a society where people seem to be nice if there’s something in it for them. Some people focus on deliberately sabotaging others by saying ugly things to or about other people. But my question to you today is “How Hard IsIt To Just Be Nice?”

I was standing at a service counter today waiting for the sales representative to complete my paperwork. She wasn’t very pleasant as she began the process. I continued to speak nicely to her, but noticed that she wasn’t very friendly. I thought to myself, How Hard Is To Just Be Nice?

My grandmother used to say, “you can catch more flies with honey than vinegar”. I didn’t understand that metaphor then, but it makes perfect sense now.

Research states that this saying means “you will be more successful in life being sweeter, or nice rather than being, mean to people, not nice and doing hurtful, dishonest things in life”.

Here are some points to think about when dealing with other people:

1. Be thoughtful of other people’s feelings – treat people the way you desire to be treated.

2. Embrace another person’s perspective- it’s okay for others to be different.

3. Next time you have the opportunity to be nice – take that chance.

4. It’s common courtesy to be nice – it takes less energy to be kind.

5. Count to 10 before you speak – think before you speak.

6. Everyone should be treated with dignity and respect – just be nice.

Being nice isn’t difficult, but it does take effort. How Hard Is It To Just BeNice?
