"You have it easily in your power to increase the sum of this world's happiness now. How? By giving a few words of sincere appreciation to someone who is lonely or discouraged.”
- Dale Carnegie
Dear Candy:
It only takes a few short seconds for you to pass along a compliment or lend a helping hand. It does not benefit you to go through days, let alone weeks, without showing others appreciation or gratitude. Here are some tips on how to begin doing so:
- Smile
- Make the other person feel important, and do so with sincerity
- Offer honest appreciation
- Be a good listener, encourage others to talk about themselves
- Make it a point to give at least one compliment a day -- you may be surprised at how this simple act will improve your day, too
