Image: Considerate
Really big people are, above everything else, courteous â" not just to some people in some circumstances â" but to everyone all the time.
Thomas J. Watson
Last week I was in Bangalore with my family and we were going for a marriage. Our driver was new to the place and did not know why to reach the marriage hall. On the way we saw two students on a two wheeler and we asked them the way for the venue. The students stopped for a few minutes and explained the route. Not only that. They said that they are going in that directions and asked us to follow. They did something more than that. They drove their two wheeler slowly so that we can follow them. The student who was the pillion kept looking back to ensure that we follow them.
They showed the way to the marriage hall and left! They were very considerate in their speed of driving, they tried to speak our language, travelled some extra distance to show us the way.
This in what I mean by the image considerate.
Think: do you switch on lights when others are sleeping? Do you speak loudly when others are seriously doing their work? Do you park your vehicle in front the gate of a house?
These are some questions you can ask yourself to check if you are considerate!
