Be known as an encourager and not a criticizer. The old proverb “You will catch more flies with honey than you will with vinegar” is true. People respect and listen to those that encourage them. If you are heavy on encouragement, you will be heard.
Being an encourager is easy if you learn to look for the good in others rather than the faults. This tends to be difficult if you have allowed the world to make you cynical. Nevertheless, you can usually find some good traits in most people that you can use to encourage.
Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another. Romans 14:19
