90 / 365 Respect and Remember Names
If you want to win friends, make it a point
to remember them. If you remember my name, you pay me a subtle compliment;
You
indicate that I have made an impression on you.
Remember my name and you add to my feeling
of importance.
Dale Carnegie
Do you give importance to
remember peoples’ name? It is a basic courtesy you can show to any person who
is introduced to you. A name is a very emotional thing for a person. The
happiest time for a parent is the day when they give a name for their child.
From our childhood days we have been repeatedly called by our names. When we
achieve something, we are given a certificate carrying our name and we proudly
show it to many people.
Don’t we feel happy when
someone addresses us by our correct name? Remember the following basic
etiquette:
·
Take interest to remember a
person’s name.
·
If there a special
way in which the person wants his name to be spelt based on
numerology or other sentiments, respect
the same.
·
When you address a letter, use
the correct spelling with the correct first name, initial etc.
·
After meeting a person on
several occasions, don’t embarrass him by asking his name once again or calling
him by a wrong name. You are insulting him.
There so much in a name!
