Have you ever encountered people who do no mind their manners? In a department store, when a woman starts screaming at the top of her lungs cursing a sales clerk because she did not get the size or color of an item she requested, other people will not be concerned about her appearance – just her manners. Those present will start ignoring her. This is a perfect example of a situation where manners override physical appearance.
Today, there are more than enough reasons why people get angry and nasty. While they have the right to feel that way, it is important that they know how to handle the situation properly, especially when in public and other people are around.
Manners or etiquette refers to set of expectations regarding social behavior; also known as conventional norm. I is an unwritten code implemented primarily by parents and teachers to produce well-mannered adults.
Sub-consciously or consciously, people put more emphasis on their first impressions, particularly with others that they wish to have a personal relationship with. This does not cover just physical appearance but also good manners. Nobody wants to associate with anyone who talks when his mouth is full, asks the woman to pay for their first date, or someone who does not stop talking.
Men in particular, who are polite, are greatly appreciated. If they stand when introduced to a woman, say “thank you” and “please” more often, they impress more people - not just the female population.
Manners are written and unwritten rules that define or limit the behavior when interacting with other people. They are often associated with respect and proper conduct.
The Following Are The Guidelines To Becoming A Well-Mannered Individual:
1. Be warm and respectful when greeting acquaintances and friends. Uncomplimentary opinions of another person must not be expressed to others. These opinions can destroy another individual’s reputation or privacy. Avoid insulting other people, especially when in a crowd since this can adversely affect their emotions and self-confidence.
2. Be hospitable and accommodating to everyone who pays you a visit. It is considered a personal responsibility or duty of homeowners to be considerate of their visitors.
3. Dress appropriately by choosing clothes that will not offend others, especially when attending meetings, social gatherings, etc.
An average looking person who is well mannered is more pleasing in comparison to good-looking person without manners. While physical appearance is important, it is more essential to pay attention to etiquette, which will be the determining factor of success when interacting and building relationships with other people.
