Though there is nothing like it in the world when people go out of their way to thank you. There is no greater feeling than the one we get in our gut when people recognize us for what we do for them and who does not like feeling good?
Now ask yourself when was the last time you gave someone Thanks?
A. Five minutes ago
B. Yesterday
C. Two days ago
D. Last month
E. Give someone thanks? Hell no! I am the only one who deserves Thanks!
Seriously, if you answered anything, and I DO MEAN ANYTHING, other than letter A then you are WRONG and you are OVERDUE in giving someone a simple: THANK YOU!
What's it going to cost you to take some time and recognize all the good people and all the good things in your everyday life? Remember, no action, no event, no one is too big or too small to be left unrecognized.
Set aside some time everyday to either bang out a Thank You phone call or a Thank You email. Better still, do what I do at least once a week, write a Thank You note to someone who you feel has gone above and beyond for the week? Then repeat at least once a week. Before you know it you will be saying some very meaningful Thank You's to those that you never even thought deserved a second glance.
I do invite you to join the conversation and tell me what you think about any of the postings so far.
Thank You!
