Tips for writing a great appreciation
Take a moment to think about the person you’re writing to. Why are you grateful for them? What's great about them? The more specific you can be, the more meaningful your Note will be. Some prompts that might be helpful are:
Can you recall a time when the Recipient did something that made a big impact on you? You could tell them about that and thank them for it.
Is there something special about the Recipient that you can see makes the world a better place? You could describe what that is and why it’s special and important.
Is there a funny story that comes to mind that makes you smile or laugh to think of it? You could tell that story to the Recipient in your Note and thank them for brightening that memory.
You don’t have to be eloquent. Be genuine and that’s going to shine through.
