Today at work I heard something that I had not heard in a long time and that made me stop dead in my tracks. One of my bosses actually thanked me for my efforts. Why was I floored with a simple thank you? Quite simply, it had probably been several months before I had heard these words come out of her mouth. Usually I am greeted with a recap of what went wrong the previous day, or the reasons why her job is so difficult. But today my day was instantly trasformed because I received a thank you.

For the rest of the day, I made it a point to thank all of my associates for any reason that entered my head. Although I know I was not as lacking as boss #3 in the thank you department, I’m sure I can do a better job thanking them for their efforts. I quickly wrote the words thanks on a piece of paper, stapled it (of course it was with my red stapler) above my desk so that I would be reminded daily to do the easiest thing possible to reward and motivate my associates.
So after you read this post, immediately make it a point to thank 5 people (either face to face or via the internet). You will feel better about yourself and might even make someone’s day.

I would second Makarand with the help of the following beautiful poem by "David Harris" We take each day as it comes never knowing what we might find. Some days are filled with sunshine that brightens up our lives. Some days are filled with rain in... |
Dear Mr. Murthy, This is an one year old topic which I guess has closed long back. |
