The Positivity Blog looks at “advice that has survived and been rediscovered over the centuries” from which it has compiled eight tips for improving your social skills:
- Listen
- Actually be interested in the other person
- Don’t listen to too much criticism
- Don’t babble on and on
- Treat others as you would like them to treat you
- Keep a positive attitude
- Use silence
- Communicate with more than your words.
Each tip on the list is accompanied by quotes from historic figures. See the complete post here.
It’s interesting how each of these tips are in essence biblical priciples, though the author of the post never cites one Scripture passage to support the principle. Can you match each of the principles above to a specific Bible text? Try it and post them below please.
