25 Unexpected Ways to Make Someone’s Day
25种意想不到的方法带给别人快乐
Do you remember the last time that you received an unexpected call, text or email, someone who intentionally said something complimentary to you? How did it make you feel, did it break your mood? Did it bring a smile onto your face? What impression did this person make on you?
你记得最近一次接到意想不到的电话、意外地收到短信或者邮件，或者某个人刻意地夸赞你吗？这让你感觉如何？是否让你的坏情绪烟消云散了？有没有让你的脸上带上一丝微笑？你对这个人的印象如何？
When I consider the different types of impressions we make on people, there are very few more powerful then when you do something unexpectedly to show people they are important to you. It could be a simple text message telling a friend how much you value the friendship or a short email to a co-worker complimenting him or her on the way he or she handled a difficult situation at the office today.
细想一下我们留给人们的各种印象，恐怕你没有为你所在乎的人做过太多的出乎意料的具有正能量的事。一个简单的信息就能告诉你的朋友，你很珍惜你们之间的友谊，或着当同事工作上遇到困难时时发一封简短的邮件问候一下。
