I’m extremely grateful for it. It has been extremely helpful to me as I’ve unlearned old bad habits and committed myself to learning new and better ways to interact with others. I re-read often.

We all want to feel like we matter, so treating others like they do–as sincerely as possible–is more likely to win their favor than not. There is a major caveat I’ve found: someone else may be utterly disinterested in you and anything you have to say or do. And depending on the circumstances, you may be in an environment, temporarily hopefully, where you meet many such people. I’ve been working on how to win over others who want nothing from me–and so are less motivated to respond well to kindness and positive attention. Big challenge.

Make others feel significant. Good general advice.

Thanks Nikki – you’re so right. It is difficult to apply these aspects to those closest to you and I think it’s because we expect more from those who know us well. Sometimes are expectations can become unrealistic – for example, expecting others to read our mind. One way to maintain positive behaviors towards those who push your hot buttons is to short circuit those buttons. Just because they push it doesn’t mean you have to react and if they don’t get a reaction, they may stop pushing it.

I think it’s hardest to apply this advice to the closest relationships (spouses, siblings, etc.). What tips do you have to maintain positive behavior toward people who know all of the buttons to push and who you may struggle to show genuine interest in from time to time?

Thank you for sharing these wonderful tips Bruce. People are not their actions and keeping an open mind – what great points to keep in mind.
