Compliment.

It was a sunday morning and I had gotten up a bit later than usual that day.

During breakfast with my family, we were having our usual discussions when I noticed that the house was all clean and my mother looked a bit tired. When I asked her if she was feeling okay she slowly replied, “I was just doing all the household work since morning and then today I also cooked your favourite meal.”

It struck me how much effort my mother takes for me on a daily basis. This is just one of those countless subtle moments when, if we take a pause, we will realise the efforts that some one is putting in for us. Its those kind of moments when we should verbally give a compliment or say thank you.

Sometimes we wonder what difference would it make if we do or don’t vocally appreciate our near dear ones… Maybe we make excuse to ourselves by thinking that the other person is just doing their work as usual and take things for granted. Let’s not take things for granted anymore. Let’s not keep our thank yous for other days. Let’s take a moment now and today.

Do you know that it’s a fact and many studies also show that complimenting or genuinely appreciating someone creates a positive impact on the person. It also helps to build their self-confidence and motivates them to continue with their good deeds. So keep spreading positivity around.

P.S. – Try to compliment one person in your day and see the magic and positive vibes it reflects in your life. 🙂

Start by making your bed.

Since childhood, my father has taught me that once you wake up you should start the day by making your bed.

It’s a really very small activity and does not consume much time but gives us a little sense of accomplishment that we’ve done one work correctly ourselves and further motivates us to achieve our targets of the day.

And in case we have a bad day, we come back to a bed that we made in the morning and can feel good about it. It will give us the encouragement we need, that tomorrow will be a better day.

P.s. If you want to change your life, or bring a change in the world. You have to start by making your bed.

Tell me people do you have this habit and has it brought a difference in your outlook towards life? Or have you ever wanted to adopt the same? Keep sharing your views.
