Taking Everything for Granted vs Appreciation
Recently I learned two inspiring stories from one of my mentors.
Story A:
An Asian lady at Home Depot purchased heavy materials. An employee kindly asked her "do you need help?". "Yes, thank you so much if you could," the lady said. Later the lady requested to meet the store manager to thank the employee as well as the store manager for having a good employee in the team. Everyone was VERY happy.
Story B:
An Asian lady involved in a chain-reaction car accident hit by another car from behind, then hit a car in front of her. Fortunately no one was seriously hurt. Several police officers came and peacefully solved the accident. The lady asked one of police officers to tell his badge number, so she could write to his boss "for good experience with police officers." Other police officers overheard the conversation with surprise look.
"A genuine praise goes a long way..." - the soft power with a distinctive appearance will positively influence mainstream toward a specific group in the society.
We are being role models for our children. Showing appreciation is one of many good traditions that our children should carry on.
