How do you feel when you practice friendliness?
You should feel positive and helpful to others, and be yourself.
Friendliness starts from day one of meeting someone. As you get to spend time together, you see the kindness of the other person. Friendliness is not about expecting anything in return from the other person.
The friendly habit kicks in, and you realize how much friendliness matters to you without great expectations. You feel content with yourself and with others in a friendly manner. In a new group, you feel the awkward moment and look around you with despair.
Your first day at school, be it in kindergarten, or high school, these are experiences that make you feel alone and put you in a corner. People feel happy and good about themselves when in a conversation, and, especially after breaking the ice.
The first words spoken set you free. Your first day at work can make you a nervous wreck.
The little conversations show the friendliness in the other person, and that continues if you let that happen to you.
If you start being friendly toward someone you don't like or is not your favourite person. They will be cautious and look at you with an open mouth.
You need to be sincere and have true meaning in your friendliness toward that person.
They will open to you when they feel your true emotions. You conquer loneliness, the feeling of inadequacy, and shyness when you are open to friendliness. As a child, I was shy and that held me back from speaking to people.
I had one very good friend at school, and others were friendly, but I preferred the one friend I had and developed the courage to speak up and to approach other children.
Often, I watched others while they laughed and danced at school parties the needed a change at some point in my life and that happened in my first year of college.
I met new people and enjoyed myself more and with new people. The idea of meeting new people was to show my friendliness to others too.
Friendliness made me feel happier, outgoing and I improved my social life.
My constant smiles showed my friendly personality, happy, encouraging, positive, confident, close to good people, and embracing each day with an open mind.
I didn't want to miss out on the good times with friends in college, and I positively approached others.
I decided to speak first, to be courageous, and comfortable with people, and didn't want to think of how awkward I will feel approaching others.
I showed interest in others not thinking of how they will react to me. The sweet a short conversation opened my voice and I was listening to others. Force is not needed to show friendliness, I focused on the other person, and remained calm with eye contact.
I don't wait for the other person to be friendly at first. I am usually the first one who speaks first.
I avoid sarcasm and prefer using kind words and elaborating on conversations. If I use sarcasm, it will make the friendliness disappear.
Short answers are not my style of friendliness.
I connect easily with people I meet daily. To be friendly, you must be faithful. Look forward to meeting people and making new friends easily. Enjoy the company of others.
