\n\u201cDon\u2019t forget to say \u2018Thank you.\u2019\u201d<\/em>
\nI can remember my mother and father preaching these words to me as a little girl. Though I\u2019m not little anymore, I\u2019m still giving my thanks and now reminding my grown children of the same thing. But, this article isn\u2019t about parenting.
\nWhen someone holds a door open for you, your \u201cthank you\u201d is instinctual. Those words chirp out as verbal appreciation for a nice gesture. While I feel gratitude every day for my family, customers, coworkers, friends, etc, I often don\u2019t stop in my day to day to really think about the thanks I\u2019m giving and receiving.
\nTwo simple words with such power behind them. These small words can create emotions of cheerfulness and optimism, grow self-esteem, and make people feel happy, part of a team, and appreciated.
\nFor your customers, co-workers, employees, and friends\/family, here are 4 simple tips for showing them how valued they are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Get personal<\/strong>. Personalization makes an impact when you\u2019re serving your customers day to day, and even more when you employ it to show them your gratitude. I had a customer that had back-to-back issues once. Even though he could have been more than frustrated, he was so patient. I felt as though I needed to let him know how much I appreciated him being so understanding, so I made a certificate: the Certificate of Patience. He thought that it was awesome- and it still is hung up in his cubical today.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
      \n
    1. Put it in writing.<\/strong> Sure, sending an email is easy and technology makes it hard to resist, but the recipient takes special notice when you take the time to hand write your appreciation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
        \n
      1. Just because. <\/strong>Not because of holiday time, an anniversary, or a birthday, give a gift for no reason at all. The unexpected expression of gratitude leaves plenty of good feelings all around.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
          \n
        1. Impact your culture. <\/strong>It isn\u2019t hard to participate in a culture of gratitude around you. Especially in the workplace, a little bit of appreciation has a way of being contagious.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Every day, there is a reason to share your gratitude. Don\u2019t be afraid to show that you\u2019re paying attention.<\/p>\n
