12 the easiest ways to be "above average"
Before you - the translation of the article Alden Tan, one of the authors of the blog www.pickthebrain.com.
blockquote> Here is what I define as "normal": to be the same as everybody else. That's good, because it means that you are a rational person who is trying hard to be happy, and it does not harm others.
But here's the thing: "normal" and "average" - two completely different things. However, they always overlap.
"Average" - it's not cool. It means to take things as they should be, it means constantly follow the crowd, even when it's not too good for you.
Here are 12 ways in which you can rise above the "average».
1. Thank serving personal
Personally, I find disgusting when some begin to think that they can treat the service personnel as an empty space just because of the stupid and false idea called "customer is always right».
If you want to rise above the average - to respect all the people around.
Be grateful and recognize that staff need you, no matter how much you spend on it.
2. scavenge from fastfuda
I am surprised that there are so many adults who do not care about the purity of their tables. You're not three years. Clean up after themselves!
3. Thank people for voprosy
Most people believe that gratitude can be demonstrated when some favor has been done for you. It's not too good human behavior. It's more like a deal.
What about gratitude for the smallest and most beautiful things in life? Try to thank others for what they are asking you questions. Show them that you appreciate them and appreciate a conversation with them.
4. Read a book in poezde
Read a book on the train. You'll probably be the only person there with a book. Why is that? Because everyone else will be busy with their smartphones and social networks.
Reading enhances pure knowledge. Social media, video, and so on - it is basically meaningless distraction.
5. Get a good vyglyadet
I think a lot of people in their adult lives afford just go with the flow, and do not see much sense to look better. Good looks - a pride that will always be with you. Eat right. Train. Wear nice clothes. Shaved. Anything.
6. Guys, let your ego and your anger will change on the back sidene
It's too easy - to surrender justified and righteous anger, and begin to behave like a baboon. The real power comes from the ability to control himself, forgiving others, from the ability to deal with conflicting emotions and not to make impulsive, reckless behavior.
If you think that the winner of the dispute or quarrel is the one who is stronger byot his chest and yells louder, think again. This winner knows how to win with less effort.
7. The guys treat women with uvazheniem
Most young people today are concerned about the "set points" and they see who gets the hot girl. Taking part in these small games, some guys deliberately deceive the girls, or each other.
If you really want to stand out from the mass, treat women with respect. Be a gentleman. Be sincere. These features are very rare in the modern world.
8. Stop complaining, even if you have to do povod
You know, not everything in life goes wrong. You can either deal with it and move on, or you can start to complain about the entire world. Just do yourself a favor and move forward. Nobody likes a whiner. If you show that you can solve their problems, people will respect you for it.
9. First, try to solve the problem samostoyatelno
I believe that with the advent of all these hotlines, Google, with the advent of the best ways to communicate with each other, it is unlikely someone once tried at first to do something on their own. They think they always get help - this is normal.
Yes, there are many convenient options that make your life better. But I think you can prove your resourcefulness, making it one of its characteristic features.
10. Walk peshkom
Too many people today can not stop relying on taxis, protecting your lazy ass. Worse, some people are spoiled by being leaders believe that walking - a sin, because they deserve the status to be carried. "Why should we go? We also have machines »!
If the distance is small, then for God's sake, go on foot. This is useful for you.
11. Do not check your phone kompanii
Because too many people are found only in order to ensure that the other check phones.
Put the phone. Enjoy the company. If it is urgent, in any case you will learn about it.
12. If you are drunk, behave yourself
Or just go home. Too many people get drunk and behave like idiots. The most offensive, that they can always "otmazatsya" that supposedly do not remember anything of what happened.
If you do not want to be among the "medium", that being drunk, behave yourself. You're still awake after all. And even better - just do not get drunk. Know when to stop.
