SPEAKING THE DIALECTS OF AFFIRMING WORDS

Words OF Encouragement
Affirming words is one of the five basic love languages. Within that languages, however, there are many dialects. Lets focus primary on words of appreciation, expressing sincere gratitude for some act of service rendered. But there are also words of encouragement. The words encourage means “to inspire courage.” All of us have areas in which we feel insecure. We lack courage and that lack of courage can hinders us from accomplishing the positive things we would like to do
The latent potential within a work colleague or your roommate may await encouraging words. Perhaps someone in your circle of friendship has expressed an interest in learning to be an actor or actress. If it appears to you that they have potentials (and almost all of us do), Why not encourage them to explore their desire. Tell them that you can “ see them doing that.” If they are inexperienced, encourage them to attend a class at a local college. If they have had some experienced, encourage to audition for local “little theatre.” Many noble pursuits wait the encouragement of a friend.A friend says to you “I’ve got to lose weight.” What is your responds? Will you “brush it off” by saying, All of us need to lose weight”? Will you discourage your friend by saying, “That’s one of the hardest things in the world to do” or Even if you lose weight you’ll probably put it back on again”? Or will give the person encouraging words, such as “if you decide to do it, I know you will succeed because you are the kind of person who accomplishes goals”?
