Reasons To Say Thank You

What’s one of, if not the most common ways people describe a job they don’t like? Thankless. The same goes for help and support. That’s right, no matter the circumstances, everyone seems to agree that the worst outcome for giving your time to something or someone is to never be properly thanked for your hard work. Saying “thank you” is such a valuable and essential part of any relationship, but sadly in our busy world, it often falls by the wayside. Receiving thanks is such a wonderful and satisfying thing, and we all know it. So why don’t we always give the thanks that others deserve? Is it that we don’t care? Hopefully no. Do we just forget how important it can be? Maybe. Perhaps it’s the overwhelming task of finding the “correct” way to express thanks. Let’s talk about some of the things in life that deserve a “thank you”, and some ways to show just how thankful you are.

Reasons to Say Thank You

There are a million little reasons to say thank you each and every day. But when something has truly made a difference, it’s time to show your gratitude in a meaningful way.

Thank You for Your Help

When someone offers help of any kind, personally or professionally, it’s a wonderful gesture. Think back on all the greatest accomplishments of your life. Chances are someone had to help you get there, and if they don’t deserve a big thank you, who does?

Thank You For Your Time

Time is of the essence. Time is money. Time is one of the most valuable commodities we have to give. It’s easy to forget that. So any time someone has given their time to you, it’s important to say thank you.

Thank You For Your Business

A great business relationship is worth a thousand words, and at least two of those words should be “thank you”. When you truly value your working relationship it’s always important to make it known.

Thank You For Your Support

When someone in our lives has our back it means the world. Saying thank you to a person in your life who has supported you may not always be at the forefront of our minds, but oftentimes their support has made all the difference.

Thank You For Being You

Not all thank you’s must be preceded by a great sacrifice. Sometimes it’s good to remind the people who matter to you most that you are thankful for them. Period.

Thank You Letters

While simply saying the words “thank you” is a great place to start, it may not be enough to fully express your gratitude. Writing a personalized letter can be daunting, but speaking from the heart can truly show someone how much they matter to you. Stock up on thank you note cards that are just your style so you can always be ready to send a personalized touch.

Thank You Gestures

They say it’s better to give than to receive, but that doesn’t make receiving a thank you gesture any less meaningful. Finding a gesture, big or small, that you know someone will enjoy is a fantastic way to show gratitude.
