Attitude of Gratitude

I just came home after my third coaching session. Everything was great and I'm so happy and full of energy now. This session, I learned many things from my dear coach  Abg Amirul and peer coaching group. I am going to share all with you but now my focus is on "attitude of gratitude".

I learned this: "Be a great giver and great receiver!"

It's very short statement but it means a lot. It means when somebody does a favor for you , you as a receiver should show your sincere gratitude. How? Great receiver looks at giver's eyes and says "THANK YOU!"

It shows we understand he/she did a favor for us and we appreciate it.  

How many times you have been in this situation that you helped someone or even you complimented them but they refused or even they behaved as if you were wrong?! For example you said: "Hey! you look good today!" and the person answered : "who?! me?! I even can't go in front of mirror today! I'm so messy today!"

Or you have been so nice to someone, but his/her negative mind couldn't accept that you were sincere? How did you feel at that moments?

Although our coach  Abg Amirul  believes when we do good things for people we should not expect something in return and I'm totally agree with him , but do not forget that this is an attitude of great givers. Great givers just do good things for people without expecting anything in return but on the other hand great receivers appreciate giver's favors at least by saying this simple short but powerful statement which is "THANK YOU!"

I  learnt today whenever I'm playing a role of "giver" I have to play a role of great giver which means being nice and helpful without expecting anything from anyone.

On the other hand, when I am blessed by having kind people around me who help me and care about me, I as a receiver should play a role of great receiver by showing my sincere gratitude and saying a big "Thank You".

So, thank you to all people who helped me so far in all aspects of my life. Thank you my dear coach Abg Amirul! Thank you KaK Elin! Thank you  Sahabat Seru organizers! Thank you all for your time and attention to read my blog.

Love you all.
