Gratitude not platitude

Thanks to Joe. And to you for joining my psy-copy® party.

More thoughtful than thank you

Do you feel like you say thank you on repeat? Not just in person, but also in online comments and emails? It’s a great sign that your life is filled with gratitude.

Heartfelt as your appreciation may be, a simple thanks can feel a bit uninspired.

A platitude even.

Let me help …

Here’s a list of more thoughtful ways to say thanks

I appreciate you.

You made me smile.

I owe you one.

How thoughtful of you.

That's kind of you.

You made my day.

That's why I do this.

Your support means the world to me.

You made this easy.

How can I return the favour?

I won't forget this.

Lucky to have met you here.

Aw, you shouldn't have 😀

TIA (thanks in advance)

Where can I tell other people how helpful you’ve been/ how great you are? (thanks Tori, for this one)
