My self-esteem has never been as high as it’s been since I’ve been in a relationship and it’s simply because Stacy is constantly telling me how great she thinks I am.
It’s not that I didn’t think I was great before, but when someone’s constantly telling you, it gets to your head a little bit, I think that’s why she always calls me ‘kichwa kubwa’ 😂.
With that being said, it’s so important to reassure each other. Not just that you won’t cheat or leave each other, but also in who you guys are as people.
Let your partner know that you think they’re dope and why, complimenting here and there and Some examples could be:
Praying together
Complimenting them on an aspect of their personality you think is admirable
Letting them know you’re proud of them
Giving reassurance that they are the only person you want
Complimenting their outfit, hair, or sense of style
Telling them how attractive you think they are
Thanking them for the little things
Not only is it simply romantic to feel like your partner genuinely thinks the world of you, but it also makes you feel secure in your position in the relationship, and in turn, more secure in yourself.
A healthy relationship should never feel like a distraction from your self-love, but an addition to it.
Know your worth. Know the difference between what you’re getting and what you deserve. There comes a time when you have to stop crossing oceans for the people who won’t even jump a pool for you.
True friends are such a great blessing in our lives. Their absence can make you feel as though you’ve lost something and their presence can light up the most sorrowful of days. Say Alhumdulillah for those special friends..!!!!
Your job may be great, but your boss is less than a****le. This can make you want to leave the company, no matter how much you like your job. Quitting should only be a last resort, as there are ways to deal with a bad boss.
It is unfortunate when a quiet employee who works hard, causes no problems and does an excellent job, is overlooked. Sadly, some employees are only noticed if they resign to move to another employer. The management may then take notice, because of the void that is left. That is where a letter of appreciation to a boss about an employee can help make sure a dedicated individual is recognized for a good job performance.
There’s a lot of truth behind the saying, “People don’t leave bad jobs. They leave bad bosses.” More often than not, it’s not because they are underpaid, rather it’s because they feel undervalued and unappreciated.

There’s a lot of truth behind the saying, “People don’t leave bad jobs. They leave bad bosses.” More often than not, it’s not because they are underpaid, rather it’s because they feel undervalued and unappreciated. Sadly many managers think that they’ve fulfilled their duty by providing a paycheck, but that’s not enough if you want engaged and productive employees.
All great bosses know that employees need to feel appreciated. Nothing works better than positive reinforcement. Research suggests you need to praise at least three times as much as you criticize to keep employees happy. Instead of being quick to criticize, be quick to point out some of the great things you see your employees doing. This will not only reinforce these positive actions with the employees that performed them, but also encourage other employees to do the same. Appreciation coupled with incentive rewards is a great morale and productivity booster.Even the slowest employee will work to the best of their ability if they know their efforts are appreciated.
It does not cost much to show employees how much you appreciate them:
– Punish in private; praise in public. Make the public praise timely and specific.
– A personalized thank you giving specifics on how the employee has helped.
– Recognition in meetings.
–Remember to cc people’s supervisors. “Don’t tell me. Tell my boss.”
– A random breakfast or lunch.
– A relevant gift. Even something that can help them do their job better.
– Time off
Actions speak louder than words.
Saying, “Thank You” can only have real meaning if employees know you are an authentic person. Be a leader who genuinely cares about employees. Other great phrases that go hand in hand with “Thank You” are:
• Great job.
• Well done.
• I’m sorry.
• How can I help you?
• What are your thoughts?
“People work for money but go the extra mile for recognition, praise and rewards.” -Dale Carnegie
Two of the most basic human desires are validation and appreciation — we need to feel like we matter. People want to feel appreciated, respected and included. Sometimes it’s the little things we do that counts the most. Waiting too long to appreciate employees could result in those you lead feeling resentful. Not only do underappreciated employees cost more when they (inevitably) leave but they cost a lot more if they stay. (faulty work, poor customer service, reduced productivity)

Good bosses are like good coaches: They command respect and provide the right blend of praise and constructive criticism to bring out the best in their employees.
