It only takes two seconds to say two little words that will make someone's day....THANK YOU!

We all live such busy lives these days that we often forget the importance of letting others know we appreciate their efforts.

Extending gratitude is one of the simplest and easiest ways to connect with others. Take a moment to think about who and what you appreciate each day.

For example, if you travel to work via bus you might like to thank the driver. Say thank you to the barista that makes your morning coffee. And at the end of a long day thank your staff for their contribution. When you get home thank your partner for all the support they offer.

There are many opportunities in each day to stop and recognise the gifts we receive.

Whether you are an employer, employee, husband, wife, friend etc, next time someone does something for you, take two tiny seconds to say THANK YOU.

I guarantee you will both be smiling after the experience.
