to make living more meaningful

Here are a few simple ways (you can add your own creative ways) to make living more meaningful by acknowledging others:


  1. Simple Smile. Smiling is such a wonderful thing; whenever we smile at someone we indirectly tell that we value him/her.

  2. Thanking Time. It is also imperative that we be exceptional in using each opportunity to sincerely thank our friends, colleagues, loved ones etc. A sincere 'thank you' is worth a million dollars to the receiver.

  3. Help Him/Her. When someone knocks your door for help, go forward and render your genuine help to them for there are only few other ways in which you can make your presence worthy in others lives.

  4. Always Ask. When we genuinely inquire of the well-being of our others, we are giving the loving touch that only we can give. We touch their hearts and minds and they would automatically respond the same way towards us.

  5. Negate Negativism. Never speak negatively about someone. First, if any of us would talk negatively about others we denigrate ourselves. Next, we also cause the breeding of a second grade opinion among our circle of association.

  6. Profusely Praise. Every human being needs the tonic of appreciation that makes him/her remain human and helpful. No man is immune to genuine praise, hence give honest appreciations.

  7. Profess Publicly. One of the principle faults that many do is acknowledging someone's favour only in private. When possible,we must make sure we give the credit for the favours we receive in public. It would build their self-esteem and help them help us even more happily in the future.

  8. Channel Cards. If the person who helped us is far away, a simple 'thank you' card through mail would be enough to reassure the other person that we hold him/her in admiration and regard.

  9. Elevate 'Em. When you meet someone make sure that you make him/her feel joyous that he/she saw you. Make them feel that you made their day with your presence. A compliment, joke or hug works magic.

  10. Generate Goodwill. Scientists have proven that our brains emit waves that reach others and are read by the receiver. The kind of waves we emit, say scientists, decides whether the other person would be happy to interact with us or not. Hence it is important that we think thoughts of thankfulness and goodwill.
