Say those magical words and see the result
The two important words
If I remember right I learned saying the two wonderful words from my parents and I did not learn it in an easy way but they never tolerated bad manners. So, they made me say ‘Thank you’ and ‘Sorry’ every time I missed them and they were around. I felt bad whenever I missed them and they reminded me to do that but as soon as I learned to use these two words I knew the value of them. I began to feel the importance of these two words as the use of either of them helped me felt blessed or loved more than before.
No, I am not trying to give you a lecture on manners but only trying to tell you the difference which these two words can bring in your life. These two words can change an entire way a person feels, behaves or express his views. These two words show others how gracefully you tackle things in your life. Once I knew the value of the words, ‘Thank you and Sorry’ you begin believing in values of of life and these two words never let you feel the lack of excitement in your life.
Not limited to discipline
As a child I always questioned what my elders, teachers or parents me to do and I did not understand what difference would it make if I did not say thanks if someone gave me a toy or a candy. I did not know what difference it would make if I disturbed someone and did not say a sorry to him. But, I soon learned the value of these two words by the time I was in school I do not remember the exact year but it must be in class 6th or 7th of my school days when I had started to use these two words often and without forgetting to say them.
Now, I understand why my parents insisted I must use these two words. In the later stages past my college days as a marketing professional I was able to solve some of the complicated issues with the use of these two words well and I do not regret using them even when I was not needed to use them. As an online worker I understand the value of these words more than any time before in my earlier times as the people whom we deal with are entirely strangers to each other. What I feel at this point of time that use of these two wonderful words not only keep us disciplined but help keep us organized give us an extraordinary power of communication which is part of human life.
Simple words but great value
While using the words ‘You are welcome’ or ‘Thank you’ or ‘Sorry’ you create a new opportunity for yourselves as it develops a sense of love in between the two the giver and taker both. It is my humble request to some of us who do not understand the value these words try them saying while you feel lost in the battle of life or find yourself alone in a crowd. Use either of these two words as per the need of time and see the difference. You will instantly see that love, obligation and supporting others have their own importance and return is instant.
I don’t say to show his gratitude one should become or act like a sycophant or use methods which come under the category of flattery and it should not sound in any way phony or improper because it will not help you in all cases but use of a simple word thanks will sound far better no matter where you use it in your email or personally. Please keep in mind that some of us believe that a person senses our feeling without our expression of gratitude is not true in all cases but we have to tell them in words and the best word for doing so is a simple thank you. We often meet people who tell you in a regretful manner that they forgot to say thank you to someone. Fine, but that simply shows your ungratefulness for the kindness shown toward you by that particular person. Once in a while is okay but if you are habitual of such a behavior then you will have to face the consequences in near future. You will be labeled as someone who does not care for others or does not have a feeling of gratitude.
I think saying thanks even on small matters which will improve your image in the views of people who work with you. You can use these words with total strangers as you have nothing to lose but everything to gain. Actually you simple thanks will encourage others to help you more if he feels you are worth helping. Using the word thanks is not only to show you as a sweet mannered person but you include yourself in the list of people who share their love with you. Actually, the use of nice words helps make the society worth living a better life and every small effort counts in the process.
Accept them with love
You do not expect everyone to say thanks or please while talking to you but when you hear someone say that you feel great. I always say thanks in return in my own way and welcome everyone. I accept all such gifts of thank you with a return gift as they expect us to welcome his gifts. You must have noticed that way of saying things is changing lately or becoming more Americanized so some of us say you’re welcome in return although some of us might hear mention not, don’t mention, it’s all right, sure or no worries (this one is popular in Australia) but I do not feel satisfied with these words as all these words give me a feeling of lack of acceptance to some extent. You’re welcome is all right to great extent for me as it gives a feeling of happiness which provides a chance to come out of your barriers.
Say thanks and see the result
People are too busy with their gadgets and chivalry is fast becoming the part of the past. People look at their laptops and mobiles more than anything and certainly not in your eyes. In other words the chances of an eye contact has become remote so saying a thanks is certainly going to make him happy that will instantly build a new relation in between you two. Trust me when you say ‘you’re welcome you really welcome him with such a magic which is hard to resist.
