Saying Thank You > Saying Sorry
Most people apologize more than necessary.
What if you said “thank you” 100 times more than “sorry”?
“Thanks for your patience.”
“Thanks for your understanding.”
“Thank you for your flexibility.”
“Thank you for your time”
“Thank you for waiting for my reply.”
I’m not sure it’s possible to say “thank you” too often. And when you say “sorry” rarely, people will know it’s from the heart.
Will You Stay on the Sidelines?
There are two types of people in this world:

Quote of the Day
‘“People are frugal in guarding their personal property; but as soon as it comes to squandering time they are most wasteful of the one thing in which it is right to be stingy.”
