How To Write A Heartfelt Appreciation Message To A Friend, Colleague, Or Anyone

“Saying thank you when someone has done you a good turn is not a lost art in the 21st century. The words “thank you” are still two of the most powerful words we can use to convey appreciation to another person and sending an appreciation message remains one of the best ways to truly let someone know you are grateful for what they have done for you.

Showing gratitude to someone who has done something for you not only improves the well-being of the recipient but also that of the sender. When we show appreciation for the small and big things, we are all better for it. Who doesn’t want to know that their actions or words had meaning, and who doesn’t want to know they have people who support them? Appreciation opens our heart and is a win-win for everyone involved.”

Tips to keep in mind

• Be specific
• Try to send your appreciation message promptly

• You don’t need to write a novel

• Validate the recipient
