Make Deposits in Other People's Emotional Bank Accounts | I can make deposits of kindness and helpfulness into other people's Emotional Bank Accounts. When I do this, it's easier to make new friends and build strong relationships. |
Find Out What a Deposit Is for the Other Person. | What you think is a deposit for the other person may in fact be a withdrawal in their mind. You won't know unless you find out. |
Do Small Acts of Kindness. | If you want to make friends, take the initiative, be kind to others, and create connections while making deposits---both online and off. |
Keep Promises. | Do what you say you're going to do. |
Keep Confidences. | When someone shares something with you in confidence, keep it that way. |
Be Loyal to the Absent. | Avoid gossiping or backbiting. Stick up for people. |
Set Clear Expectations. | Don't leave things fuzzy. Then follow through on what's expected. |
Apologize. | If you're in the wrong, admit it now. Don't wait. Making excuses instead of making things better turns into an even bigger withdrawal. |
Forgive. | Learn to forgive and to forget so that you don't keep hurting yourself the way you were hurt. |
