Go For It (Basic), Lesson 43 - Think about it

Lesson 43 - Think about it

There's always extra room for kindness and politeness

in our lives, don't you think? I suppose everybody likes to be

treated well, right? But how come it's not what we see out there?

Well, maybe it's because we are not setting the example…

How about saying “could you please take me to the station?”

to the taxi driver instead of just saying “take me to the station.”

Why not ask “may I talk to you for a minute?” instead of

simply saying “I need to talk to you”. Can you see the difference?

The first step we gotta take if we wanna change our environment

is actually change ourselves. Think about it!
