Give the Gift of Encouragement
送鼓勵別人的禮物
Did you know you have the power to make our world a better place? I know what you are thinking. “Who? Me? Impossible!” I hear you saying. But it’s true.
你知道你有能力讓我們的世界變得更美好嗎？我知道你在想什么。“誰？我？不可能！”我聽到你說。但是這是真的。
In this world of turmoil and strife, with chaos everywhere across our nation and around the globe, there has never been a greater hunger for simple words of encouragement. Excessive stress, lack of control, financial pressure, uncertainty about tomorrow—these are all taking their toll on people’s emotions, health, and morale.
這個混亂和沖突的世界，在我們國家和世界的混亂中，從來沒有一種強大的鼓勵的語言。過大的壓力，缺乏控制，財務壓力，明天的不確定——這些都是對人們的情緒，健康和斗志影響的因素。
However, there is hope. There is one indispensable ingredient that can transform and inspire individuals, improve life, grow a positive attitude, build self-esteem, and enhance relationships. That ingredient is encouragement.
然而，還是有希望的。有一個可以來改變和激發個人不可缺少的因素，提高生活質量，有一個積極的態度，建立自尊和增強人際關系。這些成分是具有鼓勵性的。
Albert Schweitzer said, “Sometimes our light goes out but is blown into flame by another human being.” There are two ways to rekindle that flame, to give the gift of encouragement—by your words and by your actions.
阿爾伯特·施韋策說，“有時候我們一旦出去就會被另一個人的火焰掩蓋。”有兩種方法可以重燃火焰，通過你的語言和行為送鼓勵別人的禮物。
Your heartfelt and positive words can make a difference in a person’s life, which could lead to a change in the community, nation, and world. Mother Teresa said, “Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless.”
你真誠的積極的話可以改變一個人的生活，這也可以導致一個社區，國家和世界的改變。修女特蕾莎說，“善良的話可以是簡短的容易說的，但是它們的回聲是無止境的。”
Here are some positive ways to encourage people with your words.
這里是一些用你話鼓勵別人的積極方式：
1. Offer praise for ordinary accomplishments. Look for the little things that most people take for granted. Make it personal. Look the other person in the eye, pause, and share your words with real meaning.
1.對普通成就進行表揚。大多數人認為尋找小事情是理所當然的。因人而異，看著他人的眼睛，停頓，并與他們分享你話的真正含義。
2. Show appreciation. Watch for the slightest improvement in someone. Be specific. Avoid clichés like, “You’re doing a great job.” Instead tell the person exactly what it is that you appreciate about him or her. Is it their timeliness, work ethic, the way they treat customers or the way they ran the meeting? Perhaps it’s someone’s weight loss, efficiency, or tidiness.
2.表示感謝。看到別人的小的改善。細心的，避免這樣說，“你在做一項偉大的工作。”相反，告訴他或她你欣賞他或她的什么。是他們工作及時，職業道德，他們對待客戶的方式或者是他們開會的方式？或許是一個人減肥，做事效率還是愛干凈。
