If you have critical feedback, you need to sandwich it between two compliments.
The average person needs 5 compliments for every piece of negative feedback– some people, like me, need a lot more.
I’ve made it a point to say thank you more often to the good people in my life.
And by merely being open to the idea of gratitude, I’ve seen many amazing things I would have completely missed.
Do you believe that you see what you want to see?
I do– and I’ve experienced the power of a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Some people call it the Law of Attraction or manifesting. Others get to a state of gratitude through prayer and meditation.
Expect to see me saying THANK YOU a lot more often– instead of making it up just to say it, to show true appreciation, less entitlement and complacency.
I want your help in this quest– to keep me accountable in increasing my thank you to criticism ratio to above 10 to 1, maybe 20 to 1.
