Say it 'ye all !
One of my colleagues did a presentation today on a customer case study and how she had won the case to close the sales deal. On the way out to do my sales call I bumped into her, I smiled and said ‘hey good job in nailing that sales, and that’s a good presentation you did there today’. She looked at me and said thanks, and asking me if I am sure her presentation was ok, coz she was nervous and afraid that it was all messed up. I assured her it was good, though it was forced by her manager to do the presentation ha ha! She felt better after that.
There are times when I am lost and staring at my screen, my senior sitting next to me would surprise me from the back with a Vulcan Neck pinch. A quick strong squeeze on the shoulder muscles to waken me up ha ha! Plus a word of encouragement, I go on doing my work, words of advice from experience gave me more insight to my job. It’s a wonder what encouragement you can give a person sometimes.
During my marathon runs, nearing the end of the journey near the finish line, sometimes I see some runner’s who stop running or some in pain, I pass them by and give them some encouragement “Come on brother ! its just a few more kilometers, you can do it! “ it really boosts their spirit and they start picking up pace again. Some youngsters even have the energy to suddenly boost, sprinting ahead with renewed energy, whoa!
I believe in our day to day lives, it helps when you compliment or encourage that someone, it makes that much difference to that person. It may be your colleague, it may be your friend, it may be your family members. Sometimes they might feel what they do in their lives are not appreciated or not that big a deal. A few words like ‘well done, good job, hey you were great just now’ would be really encouraging to that person and you could be making a difference in that person’s life.
Sometimes, we need this little words of encouragement and compliments from others to feel good about ourselves, more importantly to keep our spirits up, you need it, we need it, I need it. Do it, tell it with honesty, tell it enthusiastically, and you are not only doing something nice for someone, you are doing a favour for yourself too.
