It is important to be a productive servant. To be viewed as a potential leader.

This is defined as: having or showing a confident, forceful and respectful personality to be able to stand with all classes of people in the world. Though personalities are in born, ones personality can be improved by practicing to be assertive.
It is my pleasure to share with you the following assertive training test bits. I hope they will improve your public relation with all the people you are likely to encounter in your life as a Christian.

2. WHEN GOING THROUGH A LARGE DOOR OR OPEN DOUBLE DOOR, DON’T WALK ON ONE SIDE.

People instinctively respond more quickly to those who speak clearly and calmly, even in emergencies. If you cannot be understood easily when you speak.

If you spent the conversation nervously glancing around you will look shifty or look as if you don’t care to respect what the other person is saying. Be careful, too much eye conduct may look as if you are staring out at them and cause more trouble than you bargained

    When it comes to wrought iron doors Arizona residents realise that they are more than just decorative; they are a security feature that looks good and allows light and air in while keeping them safe. Many people keep their doors closed for privacy, but if your home does not face a busy street or a neighbor it is really nice to leave it open sometimes, especially when the weather is pleasant. Feeling that stream of fresh air or a balmy breeze drifting down the hall is very refreshing. However, few people would leave a door open without having their security door locked. That way they can enjoy the breeze and still have peace of mind that no one can come in unasked.…
