5 Rules of Relationships

John Maxwell

… from John Maxwell, one of the best in mentoring leaders.

Use these simple relationship rules to improve your daily communication with others:

Get Along with Yourself - The one relationship you will have until you die is with yourself.  Treat yourself with the respect and love you deserve.

Value People – You cannot make another person feel important if you secretly feel that he or she is a nobody.  Recognize that everyone has innate value and treat them accordingly.

Make the Effort to Form Relationships – The result of a person who has never served others? Loneliness.  Chuck Swindoll said, “It’s like they say in the Army, when you dig a foxhole, make enough room for two.”  Reach out, make room and enjoy new relationships.

Understand the Reciprocity Rule – What you put into the lives of others comes back into your own.  Give generously, love unfailingly and show respect to everyone.

Follow the Golden Rule – Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.  If every person make more decisions based on the Golden Rule, we would all make more right decisions.
