I've found that this attitude of kindness + always trying to be mindful of others feelings to the best of my abilities, I've done well.

I'll never shame someone for using the wrong fork or forgetting to take off their shoes or something - but if you call someone out for some petty cultural misunderstanding in front of me, I'll forever remember you as a bully.
