As I was designing a logo for an up and coming music group, I realized how much looks can be deceiving. These are not the looks we normally encounter with the general public - the way people dress. It's the same as never judging a book by its cover. I love the fact that in art, especially in design, I can manipulate the most chaotic terms into something elegant. This new music group have decided to call them Sabotage and I still hope they reconsider their name. Regardless, there is nothing positive about the name besides sounding 'cool'. What I was able to do is hide the negatives in the name and made the logo (which is the name itself) sophisticated and a bit more professional.
Ladies and gentleman, have respect for those who earn less than you. Those individuals have pride in their work and know the true value of hard work. With freedom comes great responsibility, those who comprehend that position are greater human beings than you may perceive them to be. No matter if you are a mailman or an engineer, always remember no one is beneath you - show humility, be humble. We get so caught up into our own world we tend to forget about the basics. Proper etiquette is very important, whether you are with your friends or in a professional setting. Steer away from negativity and ignorance because those factors lead us to our own downfall. You can make the most minute slip-up that leads to an avalanche of problems. Be kind to others but don't let them walk all over you either.
- Gentleman Tip of the Day -
Since we're on the topic, let's keep rolling. Common courtesy goes a very long way...trust me. Unfortunately, I only rarely experience such courtesy in Bangladesh - five years and counting. When it comes to women, gentlemen, be at your best. Always remember the basics, since it has become a habit nowadays to forget them. You know, opening a door for a lady or let her walk in (or exit) first. Don't expect a 'thank you' or any real gratitude because that is not why you are doing what you are doing. You are a well mannered human being, let this show to the rest of the world. I show common courtesy in a world that seems to have no knowledge of and are constantly surprised by my actions. Rarely, it does happen, I will see a smile on someone's face simply by me picking up a coin off the ground that he or she has dropped and returning it to them. That's all I need to do continue doing what I do. Those proper etiquettes and common courtesy have already been instilled to my character so it comes natural to me. I suggest you do the same. No one likes a rude 's.o.b' but everyone either loves or feels at ease with a gentleman around. Don't let them think our breed is dead. Chivalry is far from extinct. Be a gentleman, be you.
