2. “I see your gifts.”

Everyone has unique strengths, but might not know what they are. Studies have found that using your strengths is associated with living a happier life .

Show people what they’re best at so they’ll feel more confident by calling it out when you see it in action. And be as specific as you can.

A few examples:

  • To a colleague: “You were so patient as you walked the client through the contract and answered all of their questions.”
  • To a friend: “You always make me laugh, even during the toughest times.”
  • To a boss: “Your clear presentation helped me to better understand our bigger company strategy.”
