I recently learned a simple yet powerful language shift: replacing "I'm sorry" withThank you" in certain situations. For example, instead of saying, "I'm sorry I'm late," try saying, "Thank you for waiting for me."
This switch changes everything.
Apologies often create guilt, while gratitude brings appreciation. It transforms the conversation and the energy between people. I've experienced a significant difference in interactions using this approach, making it a game-changer in relationships.
Of course, there are times when an apology is necessary, but for everyday scenarios like lateness or favors, expressing gratitude instead of apologies has a remarkable impact. It shifts the mood positively and fosters a sense of mutual gratitude. This tiny tweak has been transformative for me, and I'm excited to share it in hopes that it can benefit you too.
