I love this quote by Mother Theres, "There is more hunger for love and gratitude in this world than for bread
In a survey of management that I recently read 88% of people who left their company said they did not receive sufficient recognition for the work they did and felt undervalued. I found that the percentage incredibly high, but is not really a surprise.
I remember when I was a teacher who works with a colleague in the classroom getting her ready for Open Country Day, as the director walked in. He chatted for a while and actually praised the show on the wall but noted that there was some blu-tac missing one of the paintings and he thought it looked messy as the left corner was rolling a little. My colleague was really upset when he came out as she had worked tirelessly in his classroom for hours but she just remembered the comments, but after the word.
This made me reflect on the discretion of the life of our family and how we praise and encourage our children. If you spend most of their time to be positive even finish your sentences for you, but denies all the positive things you've already told their children and they only remember the words, but after his.
For example, I think you're brilliant at writing your own songs and play guitar, but I hate it when you leave the guitar leaning against the chair like this and with all the wires coming out of your microphone. Its so thoughtless and any one of us could take him down or trip over them.
What do you think your child is going to remember?
The fact that you think he is a great musician, or the fact that you think he's taken care of?
There are actually three types of assessment, because there are three ways the brain processes information - visual, auditory or kinesthetic.
Visual children like to feel appreciated for things they can see how, cards, certificates, plaques or cups - things that can keep and put on the wall to remember and cherish.
Auditory children like to hear verbal praise and appreciation as soon as the warm tone of his voice and the words you use mean much to them.
Although children kinesthetic like to be embraced, have your hand or your hair tussled to feel appreciated.
If you are in doubt, use all three types!
But for this week only starting to notice and pay attention to the way you show appreciation for their children - Maybe you give them the praise of the way you would like to welcome you, but they may like to welcome you in a different way and change your approach you can find your child smiling at you in surprise and delight.
An easy thing to do this week is just to ask your children to remember a time when I felt more loved and listen to your answers carefully to see how they respond. So you can find out if they prefer the visual, auditory or kinesthetic path.
If I I asked him the names of five wealthiest people in the world, or five people who won the Nobel Peace Prize or an Oscar I'll bet you could not do it. If I asked you to remember the five people who made a difference in your life as family, friends, teachers or colleagues who showed her appreciation I bet you could do this very easily.
Join genuine appreciation of your toolkit parents and watch your relationship flourish.
