Not good at receiving thank yous…
I must confess it is far easier for me to give a compliment or thank someone than to receive one. I’m not referring to flattery, which is very common here in Asian culture. I’m talking about more genuine thanks or “props.” My impetus for writing this piece is from a friend who thanked me for some help and information. So I reflected on this. Don’t we have a moral imperative as connectors to share good information with the right person? I love doing this and the internet makes it so easy. I’ve done it many times, and have experienced someone reaching out many times as well. Since we are approaching the holiday season for most countries and cultures I encourage everyone to take advantage of the technology and tools at hand to connect with someone.
