3. show courtesy to all people (Titus 3:2) 
4. Do all the good you’re able do to for somebody else (Gal. 6:10) 
5. Pick up stuff for other people spiritually and physically— if you’ve got a strong back. Bear one another’s burdens (Gal. 6:2) 
6. Be golden. As you wish that others would do to you, do so to them (Luke 6:31) 
7. Understand what makes your own mind turn. Discern your own thoughts, identify your intentions (Heb. 4:12) 
8. Talk to others like you would talk Jesus. How would you interact with 
   Him? (Matthew 25:40) 
9. Grace is like the Savior’s All-Spice seasoning; use it on every relationship (Col. 4:5-6)
10. Don’t underestimate the power of joy. Also, try and use your face to show it so your joyfulness isn’t your best kept secret. Praise God and be joyful as it attracts both the people that you need and people that need you— a win-win! (Psalm 100:1-5)
