Want to show your appreciation to someone? Don’t whip out your wallet. Instead, take the time to personally compliment them.
Whether its someone you’ve hired to do a job (like a contractor or a house cleaner), a co-worker or employee, or even a customer taking a few minutes and giving them some positive feedback can make a huge difference. You can do this face-to-face, write a letter to their employer or business, or even post a note in a place where their other customers or co-workers are able to see it.
