Too often we either choose to deliberately ignore the so-called magic words or we do not even know what some of them are! For me, and after much reflection, this is my list of some of the more important ones! These are the ones that I constantly use to help me get by!
Thanks! This word often puts a smile of gratitude on the face of the recipient and makes them know how much you appreciate what they have done or said. It would probably stick in their minds and encourage them to help you again in the future.
Please! It shows that you would like their help and would appreciate it if given. This word would show the recipient that you value their time and opinion.
Sorry! Shows that you are sorry for your actions and/or words and it gives closure to a maybe uncomfortable or awkward situation or moment. It would probably encourage the recipient to work again with you in the future and you would also be viewed more favourably by them moving forward.
Wrong! Tells the recipient that you recognize your error and that you are humble enough to admit it. This word goes a very long way to mending fences and building bridges.
Of course, there are many more magic words but these are the ones that readily come to mind for me.
Just my two cents for today.
