Those who are in a low mood can be encouraged by praise. Though people are pleased to receive praise, they are not accustomed to expressing their appreciation of others’ effort and achievement in their presence. We Chinese are considered to be reserved in this respect.
In my opinion, we should never grudge giving our praise and gratitude in our daily life since it warms us up and helps build our confidence and interest in things that we are engaged in. I can well remember the encouraging smile on my teacher’s face when I made some progress and was praised in class. How powerful the praise was! Math used to be my worst subject but with the teacher’s encouragement, I changed my attitude and became confident and now I am doing fine in the subject.
Since praise can work magic, let’s get ready to give it as well as get it every day.
