Being Nice to Others

By
Education & Training with Rowlett Real Estate School

Every time we make contact with someone we have the opportunity to make their day better. It may be with our families, our co workers, customers, or the grocery store clerk, but in some way or another we make contact with someone every day.   You never know what someone else is going through or when they could use a smile or a kind word.  We may not always realize it, but having patience and taking the time to listen to someone can mean more than you know.  It is not always easy to be nice to others, but the benefit to those around you and to yourself is well worth it.

Giving your time and undivided attention is the most important aspect of being nice. Everyone has been ignored and knows the feeling of not being considered important. When you have the opportunity to give someone your attention it is a great opportunity to be nice.

Excellent advice. Too often people in our profession forget it is all about the client or customer and not about me!

Thank you Judith,

You never know what someone else is going through.  So many of us are so concerned about our gain, we forget there is more to life.
