The easiest thing...

So many people today say "Chivalry is dead." I disagree, I don't think it's dead, just not necessarily vibrant at the present. Here is the easiest task you can complete on the road to becoming a respectable gentleman.

-Open doors for others.

This task requires little to no effort, no money, no thought and no time but can make a tremendous improvement in the way others view you and how you feel about yourself. You may wonder who to open doors for. The answer is everyone. Open it for adults, open it for senior citizens, for your friends, for men and women and children. Make it a conscious effort. Think to yourself that if you see a person entering an establishment where you are going in, you will hold the door open for at least one person. This also applies to getting in and out of an automobile. If you are driving, certainly make the effort to open your passenger's door first, and if you are not driving, you can offer to open the person's door on your side of the car. It is incredible how the little things can mean so much. You young men out there may think this is cheesy, but you can ask my wonderful and beautiful girlfriend how much the little things mean. Take the extra two seconds to open the door for someone, soon it will become a habit and you will find yourself on the way to becoming a gentleman.

Waiting at the door for you to enter,
