I've never met anyone who didn’t like to be praised. Some find it harder than others to accept praise or can be embarrassed by praise but we all like to have some. Praise is something which we can all give freely. This will make the other person feel good and you yourself will benefit from knowing that you are responsible for having had this effect. When we praise and courage others we can sometimes kick start a positive spiral of behaviour in that person.

He will feel more accepted and valued He is more likely to put in effort on other occasions. He is more likely to be successful in his efforts.

We can encourage others by:

1.Appearing interested in them.

2.By saying “Well done.”

3.Saying Thank you.

4.Writing thank you letters after receiving gifts.

5.If we go to a friends for a meal, phoning later or dropping an e mail to praise the meal and company.

6.By reciprocating favours.

7.Sometimes confiding in someone or asking for their advice can let them know that you value them and trust them.

8Being prepared to recognise when someone else needs help and offering to lend a hand.

9.Calling round or making some gesture in recognition of someone else’s loss, bad news or distress.

10.Offering genuine friendship

Remember it is also important to encourage and praise yourself. Do this regularly.
