APPRECIATION VS. FLATTERY

Renowned motivational speaker Dale Carnegie beautifully expressed the difference between appreciation and flattery.
He said, “The difference between appreciation and flattery?

That is simple.

One is sincere and the other insincere.

One comes from the heart out; the other from the teeth out.

One is unselfish; the other selfish.

One is universally admired; the other universally condemned.

In this digital world, appreciation is so fleeting.

Usually, it comes in the form of a quick “like” on a photo.

Think about how digital recognition makes you feel.

Pretty great, right?

What if you could magnify that feeling for the people in your life, but in real life?

This one idea will literally change your life.

It’s so insanely simple, yet it works like a charm.
