Politeness In Talking
What is one of the common behaviour one can see in most of the successful people around the globe?Its the way of their talking, the way they converse with others, the way they argue with others, the way they discuss with others. Politeness is the key reflection in their talking.Yes, it might happen that some of them have incorporated this behaviour after reaching to the pinnacle, some have adopted this during the course of their way, some are born with that.

During my journey at bootcamp in Go-Jek, i have carefully observed this politeness in my coach, Sidu. He constantly urges us to be to be polite, to be soft in our voice, adopt basic etiquettes of saying “Thanks”, “Sorry”. Whenever a group of people are discussing something, say “Sorry” before interrupting them in between, say “Thanks” once your argument is done, say “Please” when you want to jump in the argument. This seems very formal and very small thing to incorporate into life but after looking and observing, I deeply feel that this is important to have a peaceful and thoughtful conversation.

The sense of gratitude makes others more comfortable and more informal in conversations.The sheer rudeness in talking makes others less interested in conversation, might be he/she will not listen to you completely or they will not give a damm shit about what you are talking.
Being polite is a matter of etiquette; it’s about respect, and being considerate of people’s feelings, culture, and values. So, how to be more polite:
- Be gentle, dont insist much.
- Be courteous.
- Start a conversation with asking questions about other person.
- Be graceful and show elegance.
- Respond to the situations appropriately.
- Start your conversation with proper greetings “Good Morning/Noon/Evening”.
- Use appropriate language keeping in mind the gender, race, religion.
- Dont bark..😜
- Apologise for your mistakes.

Along with speaking, one more important thing is listening politely. We should be having self control, and listen other people completely.Dont cut others in between and learn to speak when your chance comes or other person has stopped putting his arguments.
Listening and speaking is something which people take for granted and moreover doing these tasks in an elegant manner is still a challenge for people. Many people fail in fulfilling them.
Start being polite and respect the feelings of other people.
