Favours

One thing I’ve noticed is that some people just don’t know how to ask for favours properly. It’s a relatively simple process, is it not? Some just can’t grasp the concept. You need to ask for favours properly so that the person you’re asking from will be more than happy to do it for you. Don’t go barging in on the person and say ‘help me with _____‘ and then walk off. That’s not nice and the person you’re asking favours from might get pissed off.

Asking for favours properly is easy. The key thing to remember is not to automatically think that the person you’re asking from will say yes. A lot of people do that, they think that the person will say yes right away and therefore, do not bother to ask properly. People, it’s wrong, you cannot go around assuming that others will do favours for you. Even if that person is a really nice friend, you still have to ask properly and wait for the answer.

And if the person says no, don’t take it to heart. Maybe that person is not available or is a bit too tired to help. Don’t go around saying ‘that person is so bad, can’t even help me with this tiny thing.’ That’s bad. Don’t do that, all right? If that person says no, just say it’s ok and get on with your life. If you wanna reschedule, ask first. Don’t assume.

Gosh, people nowadays really need to learn how to ask for favours properly.

That's just my opinion.
