But the reality is that the little things are what matter most. Its the little things we do or dont do every day that shape us in to who we are. The little things determine how we respond when big things come in to our lives.当人们试图给别人留下深刻印象时所犯的最大错误是，认为人们只注意他们所做的重要的事情或“大事”。但实际情况是，小事才是最重要的。正是我们每天做或不做的小事塑造了我们的形象。当生活中发生大事时，小事决定了我们会如何反应。The kind of image you present to the world is determined by your actions, comments, attitude, behavior and even appearance.

How do you impress everyone around you without big gestures or a lot of time? These 30 things might be simple, but they have a big impact. Their effects are lasting. People will remember the little things you do and that can make the difference youre looking for.你向世界展现出的形象由你的行为，言论，态度，举止，甚至外表决定。这些方面在见到某个人的最初几秒就能被注意到。所以，你怎样让人们认识真正的你呢？不需大的动作，不需很多时间，怎样给周围的每个人留下深刻印象呢？这30件小事或许很简单，但影响却很大。它们产生的效果是持续性的。你做的小事会被人们记住，产生你所追寻的效果。1. Dress the part着装得体Your appearance is the thing people see first. They look at your clothes, hair, shoes, etc. They make assumptions about you before you even open your mouth. If you want to impress people, dress for the occasion. Take time to get ready in the morning.外表是人们最先看到的。他们会观察你的衣着，头发，鞋子等等。甚至在你开口之前他们就会对你作出设想。如果你想要给对方留下深刻印象，着装要适合场合。早上花费一点时间做准备。2. Be on time准时If youre late for something, youre giving someone the opportunity to judge you without you even being there. If you say youre going to be somewhere at a certain time, then be there at that time. Waiting for someone when they should already be there is frustrating and annoying.如果迟到了，你就给了别人在你露面之前对你做出判断的机会。如果你说了要在特定的时间到达某个地方，一定要准时。等待一个本该如期而至的人是非常沮丧，非常烦恼的。3. Dont break your promises切勿食言There are too many people out there making promises they know they cant keep. They promise something because it makes the other person feel better in that moment. The problem with that is that down the road, when you dont follow through, the comfort that person felt turns into discouragement, frustration and even anger. If you cant keep a promise, dont make it. If you do make a promise, do everything you can to keep it.许多人明知自己做不到，却依然做出承诺。他们承诺某些事情是因为当时会让对方觉得不错。这样做带来的问题是，当你难以兑现承诺的时候，对方之前的舒服就会变成失望，沮丧，甚至愤怒。如果你不能兑现，那就不要承诺。既然承诺了，就要尽最大努力遵守。4. Respect others尊重他人This includes your elders, minors, co-workers, family members, etc. This can be hard when you have to be around someone who has differing opinions than you, or who acts in a way you dont approve of. But you can still be civil. If you look for attributes you respect in people, you will find them.包括年长者，年幼者，同事，家人等等。如果对方和你意见不合，或者你不赞同他们的行为方式，尊重他们尤其困难。但是你仍然可以有礼貌地对待他们。如果你希望留下尊重他人的好印象，你会得偿所愿。5. Be involved积极参与If you support going green, then go green in your life. If you support your local government, then attend community meetings. Be a part of the things that matter to you.如果你支持环保，生活中就要注意环保。如果你支持当地政府，那就参加社区会议。如果某些事情对你来说比较重要，那就成为其中的一部分。6. Say, “Please,” and, “Thank you,” often常说“请”，“谢谢”等礼貌用语These are small words, but they go a long way. Expressing your gratitude to people, even for the smallest acts of kindness, shows that you see the good in people; it shows that you pay attention to the things people around you are doing and saying.这些都是微不足道的词语，却大有帮助。向人们表达你的感激，哪怕是为了最小的善举，这样表明你看到了人性中善良的地方，你注意到了周围人所说所做的事情。7. Smile often经常微笑Smiles are contagious. If a stranger walks past you at the store and smiles, it is a natural response to smile back. Seeing someone smile can remind others that there are things to be grateful for, that life is fun and exciting.笑是可以传染的。如果在商场路过你身边的一位陌生人向你微笑，自然的反应就是回以微笑。看到别人微笑可以提醒他人，生活中有值得感恩的事情，生活是充满乐趣，激动人心的。8. Dont be constantly using your phone不要经常使用手机When you are with someone, be with them. Phones are an amazing piece of technology. But they are also a distraction. Use your phone when its appropriate. You dont need it out every second of every day.当你和某人在一起的时候，专心陪伴他们。手机是一项了不起的技术。但是也容易使人分心。在恰当的时候使用手机。你不需要分分秒秒都抱着手机。9.

Be the kind of parent they know they can go to when they have questions.花点时间参与孩子的生活。了解他们的兴趣所在。参加他们的游戏，朗诵，竞赛，家长会等等。当他们跟你说话的时候认真倾听。做一个当他们有问题的时候可以向你求助的家长。11. Personal hygiene isnt an option, its a requirement个人卫生不是选择，而是要求Have breath mints handy. Wear deodorant. Brush your teeth. Wear clean clothes. These are things that should be common sense, but some people really struggle with them. Talking to someone with bad breath is gross. Its distracting. All you can think about is that you want to give them a mint. Take care of your personal hygiene and people will be more focused on what youre saying and doing instead of how you smell.随身携带口香糖。喷洒除臭剂。刷牙。穿干净的衣服。这些都是常识，但是有些人却做不到。跟有口臭的人说话是非常令人厌恶的，容易使人分心。徘徊在你脑海中的都是想给他一片口香糖。注意个人卫生，人们更容易关注你的所说所做，而不是你的口气。12.

If youre with family hanging out or with close friends at the movies, gum is fine. But in a professional situation, gum is distracting.这取决于你所处的场合。如果你和家人在外面闲逛或和好友一起看电影，嚼口香糖无伤大雅。而在职业化的场合，口香糖容易分散人们的注意力。14. Use humor幽默This can lighten the mood and bring people down from a tense state. Just make sure youre using this at appropriate times.幽默感可以改善情绪，让人们从紧张的状态中放松下来。不过要确保时机恰当。15. Greet people with a handshake or hug和别人打招呼时握手或拥抱Determine what type of situation youre in. You probably dont want to go in to an interview and hug your potential boss, but you should offer them a firm handshake. With close friends and family members a hug shows a level of intimacy. It shows that you love and care about them and gives you a way to physically express that.根据处于哪种场合而定。面试的时候拥抱未来的老板是不合适的，但是可以有力地与对方握手。与好友和家人拥抱可以显示亲密，显示你爱他们，在乎他们，通过身体动作来表达爱意。16. Be true to yourself做真实的自己Know what you want out of life and do everything you can to achieve it.知道自己想从生活中得到什么，尽最大努力来达成目标。17.
