Someone I know went to a seminar about public relations recently. Compliment is an important way to build good relations with others. They were asked to carry out an experiment witch I would like to share with you.
They were given some flower seeds, which were divided into two groups. They put the two groups of seeds into two vases, which were put into the same room with same conditions. The flower seeds in the two vases shoot up after three days. They labelled the vases differently. They put GOOD on one and BAD on the other. For the flower with GOOD label, we praised it every day, while for the flower with BAD label, we scolded it every day. To our big surprise, the former grew stronger and blossomed after a week while the latter died on the fifth day.
That is the power of compliment. The plant likes good words, no need to mention humans.Compliment encourage people to do a better job.
Do you believe this? What is your comment on it. Glad to hear your opinion.
