Each day, we give thanks. Whether we directly thank someone in person, or think of "thanking" in one's head, or just purely say THANK YOU and genuinely mean it- we are aware that being grateful is one of the most priceless and fulfilling "feelings" in the world. I happen to work in a field that is constantly working in gratitude- and I am constantly being "thanked" for something I did that day with a client- whether it be helping them with nutrition, talking to them about their day, or simply motivating them when no one else would.
I have a very special client in mind that always gave "thanks"- and I say, "gave", because she relocated and can no longer train with me. I am totally bummed because this client was like no other. I trained her from Day 1 on our gym and saw her go from one person, to who she is now- and she is loving life.
She had written me a Thank You card before she left and I wanted to share it with you.
Erika,
I wanted to thank you for all of your time, patience, and perseverance with me. You have helped me reach goals that I had given up on and you helped me to find the "me" inside I have been looking for so long. You are a great coach, motivator and wonderful person who I admire so much. Just to know that you do to achieve your goals is a great example for me. Your positive attitude and care of all of your clients makes you the best! I would love to have you visit me. Good Luck always to you. You deserve to reach your dreams.
Hearing this makes it all worth it- knowing that I had helped one to believe when she/he almost gave up...that makes my day.
Give Thanks to those who you care about- let them know. They may not know just how much they mean to you and vice versa.
