Are you willing to put forth the effort to recognize, appreciate, and encourage others? This may be hard for some of you who desperately need it in your own lives.

We should remember the words of George Adams: “There are high spots in all of our lives, and most of them have come about through encouragement from someone else.”
你是否愿意花时间认识，欣赏并鼓励他人呢？这可能对你生活中非常重要的人来说是困难的。当你自己饥渴时，你就不难么容易去鼓励别人，因为这恰恰是你自己需要的东西。我们应当记住乔治·亚当斯说的话，“在我们生活中高出的人，他们中的大多数人是因为受到鼓励才脱颖而出的。”
