Lend a helping hand
Simple gestures like helping people carry a load or holding a door for them go a long way.
Smile
Perhaps the easiest way to introduce yourself， smiling is part of being human. There’s a great reason why it takes less muscles to smile than to frown： Nature just intended us to smile more.
Respect others
The world’s full of differences. However， prejudice is so last century. So learn to acknowledge people’s uniqueness and respect them. It’s the only way other people will tolerate your own unique personality. Here are 5 Don’ts to help you get along with people：
Don’t be so touchy
It doesn’t really help you to be so sensitive. If you raise hell for the trivial things， then ask yourself， “Why am I offended by this？ Why do I feel annoyed？” Introspection will show you that it’s not really that big a deal at all.
People joke around and， most of the time， these can be playful remarks with no intention of offending you. As long as it doesn’t really hurt your pride and principles， just go along for the ride.
Don’t lose your temper
Quick to lose your temper？ Try slow-counting one to ten. Breathe. Getting angry easily over trivial things will make people move away from you.
If you constantly get angry （or even look it）， you’ll easily ward people off， even if you don’t mean to. You won’t become approachable with such an angry demeanor. Besides， too much anger brings too much stress. And that’s not good for you at all.
Don’t be annoying
There are several ways you can annoy people， even if you don’t mean it. Never expect that every day’s a great day for everyone. We all have good days and bad days. If you sense other people having a bad day and wanting some space and time to themselves， give them that. If people tell you frankly that one of your habits annoys them， better start making some changes. Chances are， they’re for the better.
Don’t gossip
No one likes people who talk behind their backs. You might be the life of the water cooler注， but everyone will start to hate you and what you do. Your trust factor goes down every time you gossip.
Don’t be an arrogant jerk
Sheer arrogance has no room in this world. There’s absolutely no reason to think lowly of other people. So don’t carry a demeaning attitude. Everyone’s got brains， and you don’t know what other people are really capable of.
