WHAT ARE ETIQUETTES
The word “etiquette” comes from the old French
term estiquette which meant “ticket, label”.
This development comes from the then-common practice of carrying
cards printed with instructions on how to maintain proper behavior in
courts. Later, the rich and elite decided to use this method.
Instead of sending an invitation card which just mentioned the date
and timing of the party, they started adding additional information on
the different courses, a map of the mansion, where to park their
carriages, etc. Others followed suit and soon public houses carried a
set of instructions on their entrance doors on what conduct they
expect their visitors to follow.

Etiquette vs. Manners
vs. Courtesy?

COURTESY
Courtesy is the act of being polite and doing what the person thinks
is the right thing at the given time. Earlier, the act of offering one’s
seat to a lady passenger was considered a courtesy, however these
stances undergo change with the advancing of time. A modern day
example of courteous behavior would be keeping the door of an
automatic-operated lift open for a colleague to be able to walk inside
the lift.

MANNERS
Manners is a neutral word, which means it in itself means only
“actions”. That’s the reason we use the words “good, bad” before
them to give them a direction. So when you get irritated by someone
being impolite and angrily ask him “Don’t you have any manners!”
and he replied “Yes”, he could actually be right.
Everyone has manners, but depending on the upbringing,
environment, and education, he could have either good manners or
bad ones. In short, etiquette teaches us how we should behave, and
manners are how we ultimately do.

ETIQUETTE
It is the code of conduct that people in different social circles are
expected to adhere to. It’s a set of instructions that might not be
written out, but are paid equal importance to written rules. Etiquette
specifies how a person should behave in a given circle so as to leave a
positive impression on everyone present.

3 IMPORTANT TRUTH
1) Certain things are expected from you in college. The sooner you
know how to meet and surpass those expectations, the more success
you’ll achieve.
2) People judge you by your manners. Develop good ones.
3) Likeability gets you a long way. If you respect others and respect
yourself, you will be more likeable. You can’t please everyone, but you
can respect everyone.

START DEVELOPING
PROFESSIONALISM
“So the first thing is, start practicing on never saying ‘um’.” I’m sure
multiple students have heard this suggestion from English teachers
throughout their high school career but it is actually an important
piece of advise to follow. When talking with professors, friends,
coworkers, or anyone that you are trying to make a good first
impression on, do not use the word “um” (or “like” for that matter. In
fact “like” is worse). Without using filler words such as like and um,
you can come across as more confident, intelligent, and believable.
This is most important in speeches and job interviews and it’s best to
start practicing early than learning this lesson the hard way.

Do you think smile plays
any important role in our
life?

POWER OF SMILE
Smiling is not only a universal human expression, but it also carries a
great deal of importance in various aspects of life.
Positive Social Interaction: Smiling is a fundamental part of non-
verbal communication. It conveys friendliness, approachability, and a
positive attitude. When you smile, you're more likely to create a
positive impression on others, which can lead to better social
interactions and relationships.
Improved Mood: The act of smiling can trigger the release of
endorphins, which are natural mood elevators. Even forcing a smile
when you're feeling down can have a positive impact on your mood.
Smiling can help reduce stress and anxiety.

Health Benefits: Research has shown that smiling can have physical health
benefits. It can lower blood pressure, boost the immune system, and
reduce the perception of pain. A positive outlook on life, often
accompanied by smiling, is associated with better health outcomes.
Enhanced Attractiveness: People generally find others who smile to be
more attractive. A smiling, confident demeanor can make you appear more
appealing to potential romantic partners or in social situations.
Professional Advantages: In the workplace, a pleasant and approachable
demeanor can lead to better relationships with colleagues, supervisors, and
clients. Smiling can also enhance your perceived competence and
professionalism.
Improved Relationships: Smiling can help build and maintain strong
relationships. It signals warmth and openness, making it easier for people
to connect with one another.

Cultural Universality: Smiling is understood and appreciated across
cultures. It's a non-verbal way to bridge language barriers and convey
positive intentions.
Stress Reduction: Smiling, even in stressful situations, can help reduce the
body's stress response. It can act as a coping mechanism and make difficult
situations more manageable.
Increased Likability: People are more likely to be drawn to and remember
individuals who smile. It can make you stand out in a positive way in social
or professional settings.
Boost in Confidence: Smiling can make you feel more confident and self-
assured. When you smile, you project positivity, which can also boost your
own self-esteem.

Acts of Kindness: Smiling at others can be a simple act of kindness that
brightens someone's day. It can create a ripple effect of positivity as the
person you smiled at may be more inclined to smile at others as well.
Elevated Emotional State: Smiling can help shift your emotional state from
negative to positive. It can be a powerful tool for self-regulation of
emotions.

UNDERCONFIDENT?
Under confidence is a state of feeling or believing that you are not
capable or competent enough, often resulting in a lack of self-assurance
and reluctance to take risks. It can manifest in various ways, and different
people may exhibit different signs of under confidence. Here are some
common signs to look out for:
Self-Doubt: Underconfident individuals often second-guess themselves
and their abilities. They may frequently ask for reassurance from others or
doubt their own judgments and decisions.
Avoidance of Challenges: People who lack confidence may avoid taking
on new challenges or tasks that they perceive as difficult or outside their
comfort zone. This avoidance can limit personal and professional growth.

Negative Self-Talk: Constant negative self-talk, where individuals berate
themselves or focus on their shortcomings, is a clear sign of
underconfidence. Phrases like "I can't do this" or "I'm not good enough" are
common.
Over-Apologizing: Underconfident individuals tend to apologize
excessively, even for minor things that don't require an apology. This can
stem from a fear of inconveniencing or upsetting others.
Difficulty Accepting Compliments: People with low self-confidence may
deflect or downplay compliments, often believing they don't deserve the
praise.
Perfectionism: While striving for excellence can be positive, an excessive
pursuit of perfection can indicate underconfidence. Perfectionists may fear
making mistakes and, as a result, procrastinate or avoid tasks.

Lack of Assertiveness: Underconfident individuals may have difficulty
expressing their thoughts, needs, and boundaries assertively. They might
agree with others to avoid conflict or confrontation.
Social Withdrawal: Some underconfident individuals may withdraw from
social situations or avoid networking and social events due to a fear of
judgment or rejection.
Physical Signs: Physical symptoms of under confidence can include
nervousness, trembling, sweating, biting nails, overcorrecting your dress or
a shaky voice when faced with challenging situations.
Comparing Oneself to Others: Constantly comparing oneself to others and
feeling inferior or inadequate in comparison is a common sign of
underconfidence.

Procrastination: People who lack confidence may procrastinate as a way to
delay facing their fears or doubts about a task. This can lead to decreased
productivity.
Difficulty Making Decisions: Underconfident individuals may find it
challenging to make decisions, big or small, as they fear making the wrong
choice and being judged for it.
To conclude:
It's important to note that under confidence can vary
in intensity from person to person. It is a common
human experience, and many people struggle with it
at various points in their lives. Building self-
confidence often involves self-awareness, self-
compassion, setting realistic goals, and seeking
support or guidance from mentors, therapists, or
