E  xpressions of Encouragement

 

Positive words MUST be the norm--NOT the exception!

Did you know that it takes seven positive words to "make-up" for every single negative word spoken in meaningful relationships?

 

Remember, this is only ONE of the important qualities and characteristics that must be present and growing for relationships to be successful. If you are strong in this area--GREAT! Remain strong and growing in it! Then, work on the other qualities and characteristics. They ALL must be present and growing in ALL relationships! How are you doing on all the others, too?
