Six Ways to Say Thank You

February 7th, 2010 by admin

Thankfullness is a quality that breeds success. You don’t even have to mean it at first. You can cultivate the art of being thankful merely by saying thank you every opportunity you get. Here are six ways and times to say thank you:

1) “Hey thank you, man.” Easily said to anyone who holds an elevator or door open for you or the guy who sells you your paper  at the newstand.

2) “Thank you, thank you very much.” That’s right. Have fun with it and pretend your Elvis. Say thank you like that every time some gets you a glass of water or when you get up to from your desk to make a presentation. It’s a great starter joke (especially if no one is applauding) and it will make you feel good.

3) “Thank you for your thoughtful gift …” Thank you notes are a great way to say thanks for gifts. You can use these at home or in business.

4) “Here’s a token of my appreciation.” You can say it or write it, but adding a gift to say thank you is a real class act.

5) “I want to thank you …” That’s lyrics from Dido’s song thank you if you didn’t recognize it. But why not send someone a thank you song via MP3, YouTube link, a mix CD of thank you songs, or make a radio request. Those are always fun.

6) “Thank you.” This is classic, timeless and can be used any time or any place.

Yeah, it’s obvious, but it’s amazing how few times people do it throughout the week let alone doing it throughout the day. Try it! You’ll thank me for it.

BTW, thank you for reading this post.
