**Before you say anything to anyone,
ask yourself three things:

1.) Is it true?
2.) Is it kind?
3.) Is it necessary?

**Make promises sparingly and keep them faithfully**

**Never miss the opportunity to compliment
or say something encouraging to someone**

**Refuse to talk negatively about others
don't gossip and don't listen to gossip**

**Have a forgiving view to people. Believe that
most people are doing the best they can**

**Keep an open mind: discuss, but don't argue.
(It is possible to disagree without being
disagreeable)**

**Forget about counting to 10. Count to 1,000
before doing or saying anything that could
make matters worse**

**Let your virtues speak for themselves**

**If someone criticizes you, see if there is
any TRUTH to what he is saying; if so, make changes.
If there is no truth to the criticism, ignore it
and live so that no one will believe the
negative remark**

**Cultivate your sense of humor, laughter is
the shortest distance between two people. Do not
seek so much to be consoled, as to console; do not
seek so much to be understood; as to understand;
do not seek so much to be loved as to love**

**I pray that all of us will keep these points
in mind and the Biblical principles behind
them so that we can continuously improve our
personal relationships with others where ever we are**
