Remembering Pastor Von and some of his many words of wisdom, (the following of which he often modeled), on this 9th anniversary of his Heavenly Homegoing!
A GOOD PERSONALITY
Personality is like a fragrance. A bad personality is like an offensive odor. In reality our personality is the fragrance of our character. A composite of our habits. Are we attractive or are we repulsive?
1. DO smile! A smile costs nothing and is always appreciated.
2. DON'T ignore people. Even when you don't want to talk, be friendly when someone says "Hello" or offers their hand.
3. DO make people feel important. Make each person feel that he/she is special.
4. DONT BRAG! No one, but no one likes a person who brags! Be an honest person.
5. DO have a sense of humor! Laugh and the world laughs with you, cry and you cry alone.
6. DON'T always have a problem... or troubles... or want help! You will soon be alone.
7. DO encourage. Tell others what you like about them or what they are doing. Every one of us likes a compliment, (not flattery!)
8. DON'T criticize or cut down people, (even yourself), or slam someone!
9. DO have an interest in many things. Be an interesting person.
10. DON'T grab the best, biggest, most for yourself! Give a break to others.
11. DO meet strangers. It's hard, but you can make a great friend by being friendly to someone you might not know.
12. DON'T make fun of others when they make a mistake or do something dumb.
13. DO help others when they have a problem.
14. DON'T be an angry person. Looking for an argument or fight. Bad temper.
15. DO look good. Clean, neat, groomed.
16. DON'T blame others! Don't blame others for their mistakes or worse, for yours!
17. DO keep a confidence. If someone tells you something in confidence, keep it to yourself.
18. DON'T be cool! Cool people are never popular people... they are too cool!
19. DO listen and encourage.
20. DON'T correct people in front of others.
21. DO take a joke and be a good sport!
22. DO be yourself.
23. DO remember names.
24. DO share what you have.
25. DO thank people!
AND BE FRIENDLY!
Have a blessed day!!
