Validation

8 January 2009 | 6 Comments

Wow – I just watched this video and it’s so important to see, feel and do – Validation.

Honestly it really made me cry like crazy. There are so many people in this world running very low on validation and we can all lift each other up just by saying a few kind words. You really never know how much those words can mean to someone else

Alex Mandossian (who is a great internet marketer) made a post on twitter which lead me to his blog post here:
Short Movie about the power of validation

This is a business skill.

If you validate the people you work with, say “good job!” every now and then instead of “give me more!”, you’ll see the difference it makes. I know because I somehow have had the instinct to do this with people I’ve worked with in the past. I always try to look at the good of what people have done for me and say “thank you” or “good job” as a way of showing my appreciation.

As a virtual assistant I have not received the same treatment on some occasions. Some clients do not say thank you, ever, and it really makes me feel under-appreciated and under-valued.

For the clients who do show appreciation and respect me as a person I feel an entirely different loyalty and appreciation for.

Make sure you watch this move, it’s important. Click the play below.

  3. I loved that! I love that actor from Bones – he does have a great smile :)

    It sure doesn’t take much to say something pleasant and encouraging does it?

    Thanks Kelly! I was trying to figure out who the heck he was and I knew he was tv. You solved the mystery for me, lol.

    Yes I’m really taking this video to heart, I think I might even watch it monthly so I really do remember to think of other people and how a kind word can be such a bonus in any situation.
