The Power of Appreciation
Lilly was a French Canadian girl who grew up in the farming community. When she was 16 she had to drop school. With English as her second language and poor education the future didn’t look bright for Lilly.
Lilly’s father told Lilly to find a job. One day Lilly saw a sign at a big company. Cautiously she knocked on her very first door. In her broken English Lilly told the office manager she was interested in the secretarial position. The manage decided to give her a chance. He directed her to type a single letter and then left. It was 11: 40 a. m. Lilly thought everyone would be leaving for lunch when she could slip away in the crowd. But she knew she should attempt the letter.
On her first try Lilly got through one line of five words and made four mistakes. On her second attempt she completed a full paragraph but still made many mistakes. She looked at the clock:11:55——five minutes to freedom. Just then the manager walked in. He came directly over to Lilly read the letter and said “Lilly you’re doing excellent work!”
With those simple words of encouragement her desire to escape disappeared and her confidence began to grow. Lilly thought “Well if he think it’s good then it must be good. I think I’ll stay!” Lilly did stay——all because someone had given a shy and uncertain girl the gift of self-confidence when she knocked on the door.

Lilly was a girl lacking confidence who hesitated to apply for a job but a simple sentence "You did great!" from the manager gave her great encouragement making her succeed at last.
From this story we can see how powerful appreciation is. A smile a praise word even an admiring look can make great difference. I remember once I failed an exam and felt depressed but the teacher said to me “Though you failed this time you have already made great progress”. Her words greatly encouraged me and filled me with confidence. I worked even harder and got satisfying results at last.
In my opinion the sweetest of all sounds is praise which can not only bring happiness to others but also give them confidence to change for the better. “Praise is like sunlight to the human spirit; without which we cannot flower and grow.”I hope everyone can realize its power and learn to use it.
