Break a Record today

We all have records posted in the wall of our mind ... form experiences, to actions, in many forms and fashion. Well, I would like you to break one of those records today. Which one? Well it's simple. I challenge you to go out and break the Record for the times you say THANK YOU to others.

Sometimes the simplest words of encouragement are the hardest to say, but they have huge in pack.

Many a task goes unappreciated. Many a favor goes unrecognized. But today, they will get noticed. Today they will be recognized.

Here are some suggestions to saying Thank you I picked up from a book I'm reading.

In Saying Thank You ...

* Put your sentiments in writing whenever appropriate.
* Be specific. Cite a specific moment, gift, attribute, deed. Refer to time and place. Tell what you enjoyed or Valued.
* Be timely. Don't wait until summer to write thank-you notes for gifts received in December!
* Be genuine. Don't overstate your case. Don't underplay your appreciation.

A simple "thank you" will go a long way to encourage a person and life up their day.

Go for it ... break a record.

Have a great day

David
