At times, we have lost much of our ability to communicate and above all, to be generous both to ourselves and to others.
This is a part that we have to start rectifying and working on.
The first thing to keep in mind is that many people are used to give, to buy, to seek, to please others, but they forget how to reach a balance, they have to count on the main person, which is themselves.
You have to learn to be generous with yourself, to take into account, to stop thinking about what you want to do, which path to follow, or simply when you are going to choose something for someone, to remember yourself as well.
But a fundamental part that must be worked on together is simply to give thanks; which seems to be frowned upon or unimportant.
We are used to saying, for example: "sorry I'm late". We take it for granted that the other person has to understand, apologize and take care of us. And all that with good treatment and kindness.
And actually we should say at the outset: "Thank you for waiting for me". And from there, give the explanation that you consider necessary. But that person, right from the start, has dedicated his time and attention to you outside the established timetable.
We have to learn to appreciate things, time, help and attention from other people, give value to their work or friendship. And not hide behind excuses, because for that person their time is also valuable.
These are insignificant details, but they will strengthen our bonds and also our confidence.
