      Every Girl Must Know - Nettah Eva Sayo

      Introduction

      Have you ever met a lady for the first time and instantly notice that there is something special about her? Is it just her presence or is there something more special about her? It may be her positive demeanor, the way she dresses, and even when she hasn’t even spoken a word to you. You probably noticed she was very feminine: a good example of womanhood.

      This book is about embracing attributes pertaining to women and womanhood. It will help a lady embrace her femininity.

      A woman should carry herself with elegance, and respect herself and others around her. She should be feminine, and her femininity will complement the masculinity in men.

      A feminine woman is confident, respectful, knows what she wants, and expresses herself well. She is loving, takes care of herself and her loved ones, has self-control, and does not compromise her values. She clearly understands that she is complete and that her happiness does not depend on others or the environment she is in, and she is a happy person. Being an elegant lady means you are calm, respectful, and polite. A lady who values herself is not reckless or rude.

      How you present yourself matters. If you were to go to a job interview, dress accordingly. You cannot go for a job interview in flip-flops and a top with missing buttons and expect to get the job. If you don’t have the right clothes, then borrow from a close friend.

      A friend of mine once told me she noticed that her workmates were treating her better. The reason: previously, she did not pay attention to how she dressed and didn’t even look like she had a job. Now, her clothes were no longer torn or stained. Then, after years of wearing the wrong outfits, she started wearing proper office attire. And people’s attitudes changed.

      How you present yourself matters and here are some pointers I collected. I hope you find them useful and that you use whatever can benefit you.

      Feminine Manners

      Good manners determine how people will treat you. Good personality traits to possess include:

      Be well-mannered, and knowledgeable of proper etiquette in every situation.

      Make use of these important courteous words in English: please, sorry, you are welcome, excuse me, and thank you. Use please when requesting something. Use thank you to show gratitude, or to decline an offer gracefully. Say you are welcome when someone says thank you. ‘Say I’m sorry if you make a mistake or wrong someone. Use excuse me to interrupt someone.

      Say thank you when someone does something for you. Express thanks for even the smallest gestures. For example, express thanks when someone opens the door or lets you pass.

      Be friendly, but remain professional at work. Smile and greet people when you walk into a room. Good workplace manners include being supportive of your colleagues, and not hurting their feelings. Don’t walk around with a grumpy face. Don’t roll your eyes or your neck if you think someone said something that makes no sense: instead, ignore it.

      Treat your loved ones and everyone else around you with respect, and do not be rude to them. Do not yell at your children in public. Always have a pleasant demeanor. Manipulation is absolutely unfeminine.

      Choose your words wisely every time you speak. Be patient, slow to anger, quick to listen, and slow to speak. Becoming angry raises the heart rate, increases blood pressure, and can even cause depression. Learn to get rid of anger quickly. Be kind, and never be obnoxious. Learn to say NO gently but firmly when something is not what you would prefer.

      Always think first before you act. Do not make decisions when highly emotional. You might ruin relationships, stifle opportunities, and end up regretting it.

      Do this by not manipulating others.

      Practice self-control in all situations. Never verbally or physically fight with anyone. When tranquil, you are able to see things clearly and make wise decisions.

      Cultivate an identity of calmness, and resist the temptation to bitterness, anger, regret, judgement, accusation, blame, irritation, or anxiety. Ways to stay peaceful:

      Focusing on your goals. Write down what you want to say, and read it aloud to see if it worth verbalizing.

      Practicing deep breathing every time you get angry; this will help you calm down.

      Having a pet or hobbies.

      Never being jealous.

      Only responding to a disagreement when you are calm.

      Being a good listener.

      Overlooking minor mistakes and smiling helps minimize conflicts.

      Above all, don’t make scenes! Don’t yell or threaten with your finger. If the situation gets out of control and you feel harassed or threatened, then call the relevant authorities. When you are overly emotional, you lose control and say things you later regret.

      Be tolerant of others’ mistakes. People make mistakes all the time, but you don’t have to overreact to that.

      Find peaceful ways of dealing with the situations.

      Avoid arguments, and instead, demonstrate understanding, and seek a loving relationship. Share your beliefs and opinions calmly, and agree to disagree. Sometimes it is best to listen. When you disagree with someone, you may be tempted to interrupt and give them a piece of your mind, but please don’t. Raise your concerns gracefully. Emotions do
