Make Your Mother Proud With These Etiquette Tips

Increase your confidence and improve your manners with the following tips:

Don't offer to have lunch with someone if you don't mean it. If you do then make a date.

When you are expected for a meeting or an engagement of some kind - be on time. If you have to be late call and explain the situation; it shows respect when you do this.

Something that is becoming prevalent all around us is the use of vulgar language. Sometimes it's unavoidable and a swear word rolls off our tongues. I'm not talking about that kind of swearing but the kind of swearing when people walk into a group environment and an entire mouthful of words has been spewed and every other word is a swear word. It's disrespectful and bad manners.  Be mindful of the situation you are entering and act accordingly.

One last tip concerns cell phones. One should turn off one's cell phone while in a theater of any type. Even if the phone is on silent and one decides to check messages, the brightness of the phone is disruptive. Be courteous and turn the phone off. Enjoy the show. Enjoy the company you are with. Of course, there are exceptions, i.e. doctor, etc.

Until we meet again,
