SKILLFULLY THANK PEOPLE .
LALIT BERRY
---------------------------------------
God has created this universe, our planet Earth and all of the inhabitants and creatures. Have you felt that we human beings are superior to other creatures ? Yes , we are. God has made us intelligent enough to control the animals, birds and other creatures. Is it not our duty to say Thanks to the Almighty God ? Tell me.
Yes , we should be thankful to God.
Moreover, saying thanks to other people is also important because it means I am grateful for the great things that happen to us as a result of someone else's effort.
Saying thanks also means to let them know that I am grateful. Saying thanks make others feel better.
It is pertinent to note that merely feeling grateful in mind is not enough. We should show that gratitude to them who have helped us or have showered love upon us. If you are grateful to people and if you convey it by saying thank you , remember, almost always they will give you more the next time. If you don't show your gratitude by words, then chances are that there won't be a next time or that you will wind up with less.
There is also an art of saying 'Thank You'. Keep these points in mind to skillfully thank people:
1. When you say thank you, mean it. You must be sincere when you thank people. People will judge when you are genuinely showing gratitude. They also know when you are not sincere.
2. You must say it clearly and distinctly. While thanking people , don't mumble, whisper or slur the words.
3. You must say thanks as if you are glad you are saying it. Never say thanks with a sluggish face.
4. Always look at the person to whom you are saying thanks. It means so much when you look at the people you thank. Anybody worth thanking is worth looking at.
5. Always thank people by name. Personalize your thanks by names. It makes a lot of difference to say, " thank you Robert" instead of " thank you."
As simple as the above mentioned rules of saying thanks are. You must possess the ability to properly thank people. This will be a great asset to you through out your life.
I want to conclude with the advice that the miraculous word Thanks is used to express appreciation to someone for offering or giving you something, for helping you or for asking how are you feeling.
