Riding Through It

There's an expression that horse trainers use whenever a client's ride becomes difficult - "Keep riding through it." I've heard it at least a hundred times while riding my horse. It's a function of good horsemanship. If you give up or get off in the midst of difficulties, you might win the battle that day but lose the war in the long run. Learning to be really good at something takes persistence and time. Such it is with life; so it is with writing.

How Do You Make Others Feel?

8/15/2014

I absolutely love this article by fellow-author, friend and associate, John Daly. How we make others feel says so much about who we are as a person. Don't you agree? John agreed to let me share his thoughts (and ultimately what I believe) with you. -Carol

I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. -Maya Angelou



Picture
So, how do you make others feel? Do you ask them rude, none-of-their business questions? Do ignore them when they are speaking to you? Do you criticize their appearance or behavior? 

OR

Do you smile at them, repeat back what they’ve said to you, help them when they need it, and focus on the positives instead of the negatives?

If you do the latter, then you are a considerate person who makes others feel really good about themselves when they are around you.

5 Ways to Make Others Feel Great

Dale Partridge of The Daily Positive offers 5 ways to make the people around you feel great. You might say he is preaching etiquette. I say he’s being considerate of others.

·       Put Your Stuff Away – Don’t ever have your phone or computer out while in a conversation.

·       Use a Person’s Name in Conversation – This requires you remember it when they tell you

·       Ask Them to Teach you Something – Everyone has something to offer, let them shine.

·       Be Authentically Interested – Lean in, keep eye contact, and listen way more than you talk.

·       Shine the Spotlight on Them – In group settings, share someone’s talent, a good story about them, or what you like about them.

It is fairly basic behavior, but you would be amazed at how many people don’t consider how they make others feel around them. Think about it.
