Dear friends…This is a story that I am sending to everyone because this topic is so important…and because everyone in the world right now would be benefited greatly by both giving and being given sincere appreciation!
PRACTICAL TIPS FOR USING THE POWER OF APPRECIATION
The easiest way to be a force of love and goodness in the world and make a major difference in the lives of the people in your life is through deciding to consciously express appreciation in a meaningful way with everyone you meet.
I started a discussion about the importance of appreciation in a yesterday’s “dawning” issue (which you can read by clicking this link below)…and today I want to follow up with some practical tips.
EXPRESSING APPRECIATION HAS MIRACULOUS RESULTS
I have been consciously practicing expressing appreciation for and to the people in my life, from complete strangers to my closest beloveds, for many years….and this practice often has miraculous results that benefit both myself and the one being appreciated.
It is a fact that the world we all share seems to be getting harsher, less loving and certainly busier and more stressful.
We all need to feel loved and appreciated by others, yet I have heard so many people tell me that they are treated like things, especially if they are behind a counter or serving the public.
I know many whose lives are very hard simply because they are lonely and feel unloved and unvalued.
After I have reached out to lovingly express appreciation, I have heard the person say to me “That is the nicest thing anyone has said to me in a long time!” hundreds of times.
Appreciation is such a simple but powerful act of kindness that doesn’t cost anything, use up much of your time, is one hundred per cent positive, safe and natural that makes everyone feel good.

Some Practical Tips To Using The Power Of Appreciation To Make A Loving Difference
Transformational Greetings. People are used to being asked “How are you today?” I always make sure to use that as an opening for delivering a powerful jolt of positivity by saying:
“I feel absolutely and totally fantastic today!”
“I am having a great day that’s getting better by the second!”
“Well, I have been singing and dancing with delight all day.”
“Isn’t this an amazingly gorgeous day?”
Address the person by their name and look them in the eye when expressing appreciation.
If you don’t know their name, Then say “Hi My Name is…………., What is Yours?”
Then use their name when you express appreciation. People love your talking to them directly and personally.
Looking them in the eye when you are speaking to each other multiplies the effects because your love is shared through your eyes and will spark the feeling of actually being loved and appreciated in the other person.
Only express appreciation for things you genuinely like or find inspiring about them. People can feel it deeply when we are speaking sincerely and from the heart.
Be Bold and Don’t hesitate to seize the opportunity to make a difference. I am awake and ready to show appreciation for others, especially when in public situations, every chance I get. I know its important to shine my light and send love out into the world in ways that will set up a potential cascade of positive results.
I know unexpected, sincere expressions of appreciation are powerful. I have seen lives saved and transformed by this simple practice.
Key Ways to Show Meaningful Appreciation
Say “Please” when asking for help. People love to be asked and not told to do something.
Give Praise at Every Opportunity. Most people are criticized and told of their failings so much that its hard for them to believe they have value. I will look for anything that I can genuinely like about them or praise them for—
“You are really good at your work…I appreciate how meticulous you are.”
“You are taking really good care of me and I really appreciate it!”

Say THANK YOU sincerely.
“Thank You, (Name), for being here for me.”
“Thank You, you were a total pleasure to deal with.”
“Thank You! You really made my day!”
“Thank You! You are the nicest thing that has happened to me today!”
Express Sincere Appreciation For Something Personal, which shows you actually noticed and liked it.
“I really appreciate your smile! It’s a gift to everyone you meet.”
“I really like the way you did your hair.”
“You make that outfit look great.”
“I really appreciate you…It’s been a real pleasure to be with you today.”
“Being with you has really made my day!”
And lastly, short heartwarming expressions of appreciation are some of the most powerful when said lovingly…
“I appreciate you.”
“I owe you one for being so good to me.”
“You are an inspiration.”
“I am grateful for you.”
“You are a blessing.”
“I don’t know what I would have done without you!”
Everywhere we go, we are surrounded by folks whose lives can be brightened and even transformed by those of us who consciously choose to use the amazing power of appreciation
To make a difference in this world that needs love and caring so much.
Try it out for yourself for even a day, and you will see for yourself how easy and wonderful it is to be shining your love and light to those who need it.
Be Bold and shine on!
