These two words go a long way!
But there is more.
Each time I get a word of appreciation from Olu, it feels so good inside 😀.
It makes me feel valued and appreciated.
I’m always amazed that her words of appreciation still touch me even though I don’t do things so that she can say thanks.
I am sure you can imagine how your spouse will feel when you take the time to appreciate what you want more of in your marriage.
If things are not going well at the moment, it may be difficult to find something to appreciate.
Trust me, there is something.
Once you find something, use the format below to give your appreciation wings.
With this format, you can multiply the effects of your appreciation. Here are a few examples
- When I found out that you had taken out the garbage last night, it made me feel that we are a team.
- When you asked about my presentation this morning. It made me feel cared for.
- When you brought in some groceries yesterday, it made me feel like your girlfriend again.
- Every time you make our meals it makes me feel loved, respected and appreciated. Thanks.
- When I saw you discipline the boys yesterday. It made me think that God has blessed me with a great wife and mother. Thank you.
- Thank you for making our home so homely. Each time I come in from work, I feel so blessed that I have you on our team.
You get the flow.
Enjoy practicing. Don’t use appreciation as a reward. Let it be your default.
Blessings
