Here is my golden 25 :
- Be a good listener. Listen first, then speak.
- Never forget to smile, be it friend or foe. It really makes a difference.
- Don’t look at you when someone is speaking to you.
- Learn to give and take compliments when possible.
- Hug them if you know them very well( Not everyone might be comfortable though).
- Do not gossip. People love gossips but are equally afraid of one doing so.
- Be the first one to apologize in conflicts, there is no harm.
- Do not be workaholic or compete with your co-workers.
- Be open-minded, tell what you feel like politely.

- Practice fun at work. People are stressed are love intermittent distractions.
- Put yourself in other’s shoes, you will know them better.

- Respect every job be it a clerk or the CEO. Outside work they are just normal humans. They might have a huge heart.
- Surprise people in unexpected ways.
- Stand straight and hands folded instead of keeping it in pockets.
