Hi Hive Lovers
I have had these three magic words since I was little. I can still vividly remember how my mother repeatedly practiced it on me since I was fluent at the age of four. As a child, I never realized that it was a valuable lesson from parents to their children. I feel very grateful to have a mother like her.
These three magic words are the basis of my life, and I have passed them on to my two children. It is a form of my gratitude, and I am committed to always passing on the kindness I got from my parents to be useful for others too.
Some of our children's parenting and learning patterns are copied and pasted from what we got from our own parents. There is an old saying that "the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree," which means that a child's behavior is a reflection of what his parents used to do. I hope that when my children have children, they will teach it to my grandchildren too.
These three magic words greatly affect the pattern of interaction in everyday life. Everyone needs interaction with other people. with younger people, with people of the same age, and with older people. These three magic words can be applied in any social dimension, be it formal or informal.
For those of you who consistently apply these three magic words in your life, then you will find many miracles in your life. The magic can take any form, especially if you get warm acceptance, respect, and high appreciation for your existence in a relationship.
I'm sure there are also many people out there who already know these three magic words. Those are three words we speak very often, and sometimes we don't realize the good effect they have on us. On the other hand, we may also not realize the bad effects if we don't apply it. You can prove everything yourself.
In this discussion, I will give some concrete examples of using these three magic words so that we can all understand them easily. The three magic words are:
(1) Sorry
Apologies are usually said when someone makes a mistake.
In my opinion, apologizing is an obligation for people who have done something wrong, even though it is often forgotten because we don't realize something has gone wrong or because someone often has a hard time saying sorry because of ego.
Even though we haven't done anything wrong, apologizing to others is also a positive value for people who interact with each other.
In eastern culture and customs, saying the word "sorry" when starting to do something is a form of respect for others. It's the same as saying the word "excuse me" in a soft tone of voice, which is a very simple form of apologizing.
Another example is when you need something for your child to pick up while he is playing with his toy, you can actually take it yourself. In fact, a child does not want to be disturbed while they are playing, and that is not his obligation either.
By saying the word "sorry" to the child who becomes uncomfortable with your request, the child will be happy to help you, and he will feel undisturbed and remain comfortable fulfilling your wishes.
(2) Please
Using the word "please" is not only done when you really need a favor. Even for someone's obligation that is your right, you can also add the word "please" at the beginning of the sentence to do something.
Some people often say the word "please" to their subordinates to do something, even though it is the task of the subordinates themselves.
For example, when you want your child to tidy up or store toys that have been used. By using the word "please", your wishes are carried out by a child more quickly than when you use a command sentence. With the word "please", a child will feel happy when doing something that is his obligation.
(3) Thank you
Saying "thank you" also doesn't have to be done only when someone has helped you or has done something for you.
You don't have to thank your child for waiting for you to come home from work at the door he has opened. A child does that because he misses you and he is very happy when you come home.
But if you say "thank you" to him because he's been waiting and opening the door for you, then your child will be happier when you come.
Conclusion
Every child will grow and develop according to the lessons learned from their parents. With these three words, they will also learn more and continue to improvise to apply them until they are adults.
Many people have proven that these three magic words have a huge positive impact on human interaction patterns, both for those who say them and those who hear them.
With these three magic words, you will receive warm acceptance, respect, and high appreciation for your presence in society, and it will increase the quality of your happiness in life.
Trust me!
