<p>The first habit that courteous people always practice is constantly saying 'please' and 'thank you,' Thecuy.</p>
<p>Etiquette expert and founder/director of Beyond Etiquette, Bonnie Tsai, explains that this habit serves as a 'pillar' that keeps social interactions smooth. It's not only taught to children; saying 'thank you' and 'please' should become a practice for people of all ages, Thecuy.</p>
2. Mampu Mengakui Kesalahan
According to Bonnie Tsai, admitting a mistake is indeed unpleasant, but a person with good manners will acknowledge when they are wrong, take responsibility for it, and do whatever they can to correct it, Thecuy.
“Some people dislike admitting their mistakes. Instead of making them look smart, this attitude makes them appear arrogant and foolish,” she explains.
3. Tidak Banyak Bertanya Soal Hal-hal Pribadi

People with good manners usually avoid asking many personal questions, Thecuy. Even if you’re eager to learn more about someone, it’s best to hold back and let them voluntarily share information about themselves.
A polite person will let the other person steer the conversation instead of forcing them to reveal things they might later regret.
4. Menerima Kritikan dengan Lapang Dada
Polite people are not afraid to admit when they don’t know something and will ask questions. Being open like this isn’t a sign of weakness, but a strength. Others will appreciate your honesty, Thecuy.
5. Membuat Orang Lain Merasa Nyaman

According to San Diego business and social etiquette consultant Maryanne Parker, the main good habit that courteous people possess is making others feel comfortable.
Gentle people are usually very sensitive to recognizing when someone feels uncomfortable and know what small things they can do to help resolve the situation.
For example, helping pour a glass of water or inviting someone to move to a quieter room.
6. Tidak Menyela Pembicaraan
According to Maryanne Parker, one of the most serious etiquette violations is interrupting someone’s speech. Polite people will never do that.
Often, by being a good listener, you can suppress the impulsive urge to interrupt. Instead of thinking about what you’ll say next, focus on what your interlocutor is saying and let them finish before you share your opinion, Thecuy.
7. Lebih Banyak Mendengarkan daripada Berbicara
Thecuy, being polite also means being able to listen to others. However, just staying silent while someone is speaking isn’t enough; a polite person will use active listening techniques to show they truly pay attention and are interested in what the other person is saying.
