We love approval. We love to be thought well of, appreciated,
esteemed – especially in front of others.
People large in stature offer way more
approval of others than criticism.
We actually perform better under approval
than under scrutiny or criticism.
Criticism squelches, stifles, diminishes, and demeans.
Approval enlarges, builds one up, and
causes an endorphin rush better than any shady drug one could possibly
buy.
Are you going to enlarge others?
Note this:
“I have
yet to find the man, however exalted his station, who did not do better work
and put forth greater effort under a spirit of approval than under a spirit of
criticism.”
