How to be poplite in all situations

Do you know how public relations specialists and human resource experts have the best business connections in any industry they work in? It is because of their inherent good nature and the development of a special ability called politeness.

Everyone likes a polite person who respects boundaries and carries with themselves a grace that makes them dignified in everyone’s eyes. They are the people who know the power of kindness and are always ready to talk in a way that does not hurt anyone’s sentiments. It is also the tone that they keep in check when talking to someone. No one likes a very loud and rude person, after all.

“Never forget to say please and thank you!”. You would always hear this at school and from your parents. As you grow old, you realize the power these words hold and how they work like a charm every time you remember to say it. People warm up to you faster and never fuss about talking to you. In fact, they start to admire you for all the kindness and patience you show. “Magic words” really do have the magic to make things go your way.

If you want to sound more polite, let go of the foul language you might have learned while growing up. Using such words signals to others that you do not respect them. Cursing and using socially unacceptable words make people distance themselves from you. Finding a better way to express yourself will be a great way to get closer to many people.

Etiquettes are not only limited to the dinner table. Good manners and the way you conduct yourself, even in the most informal occasions, will tell a lot about you as a person to others. It is about the way we show our gratitude and respect to people. Knowing only about the utensils to use and properly shaking hands with someone doesn’t do the trick. Thank you notes and apologies when you are wrong are some examples of proper etiquette.

Whenever you think you have made a mistake and offended someone, apologise and move on. Don’t overthink it. The case is, most people won’t be thinking about it either. This method is used by thousands of influential personalities whenever occasional slip-ups happen. Never give others the chance to twist the story in a way that can harm your relations with others. An apology should be first-hand. There is nothing wrong with apologising for your mistakes.

Below are some phrases you should involve in your daily conversations.

Please

This may sound sarcastic or a good way of talking based on the tone this word is said in. If you want to ask for something from someone, adding a little “please” will soften the request.

Thank You

When someone goes out of their way to do something for you that they had the option of not doing without any consequences, don’t they deserve a thank you from your side even if you didn’t like what they did?

Excuse me- Use this when your attention has to be diverted from the conversation you are engaged in. For example- when you sneeze or get a call that takes you away from the dinner table.

Pardon me

Next time when you do not understand what the other person is saying, instead of an ungraceful “huh?”, try using “pardon”. It indicates to the other person to explain the topic better. It is interchangeable with “excuse me”.

I’m sorry

Apologize when you make a mistake. Use this phrase when the other person says something that is hurting them. “I’m sorry for your loss” is one great example.

May I

Always ask for permission from others when dealing with their space and things. “May I see that book?” is a good example to ask the other for something. You sound less demanding and bossy when you add a “May I”.

These are some ways you can be kind and polite. This helps you build a good image in front of everyone. Your personal brand sours high when you are pleasant, respectful, and amiable.
