Words of Affirmation
Feeling loved is as good as… feeling loved! Words of affirmation are how we express gratitude, appreciation, and, yes, love for someone. In the workplace this can mean a simple “great job in that meeting yesterday,” which can be an enormous motivator for “affirmation people”. You also may have friends who really like hearing the words, “I love you,” and some who cringe at it. Discussing how your friends and colleagues feel about words of affirmation can help you all motivate each other, and also help avoid “cringe” situations. Next: Take my communication style quiz!
