They way you conduct yourself is a direct reflection on you, your parents, and your class of people. Most people have lost some of the basics of etiquette and each generation gets worse in behaviorial and mannerisms. We will lay out all the specifics of "do's" and "don't's" and you can begin or continue to use these etiquette guidelines.

When you make a new acquaintance, you can make that "first impression" only ONE time. Good manners should be as automatic as breathing so you do not consciously have to stop and consider the required action for each incident or occasion. Look at some of the topics below and really try to apply them in your daily life. You will find yourself become a more positive person that people will notice when you are in the room.

NO ONE is so important that he/she can disregard good manners!
