Dare to Look Them in the Eye

 One thing that I was taught at a very young age was common courtesy. Saying please, saying thank you, wiping your feet before you go into someone’s home- things like that. Something that I also remember being taught at a young age was to look someone in the eye when you’re talking to them. I’m pretty sure it was my grandfather who explained that when you’re looking someone in the eye while you’re speaking to them, you not only show them respect but you are allowing them to gain respect for you. I find this interesting because it’s such a simple thing that seems to escape some adults let alone children.
