How to cheer up a person? It is not as simple as it might seem at first glance. It’s not enough to say “cheer up”, “be cheerful”, “hold on”, etc. People can have real reasons for being sad. If you see that a person is saddened by something, ask him what happened. Perhaps he wants to tell you about himself. At such a moment, to help a person, sometimes just listening to him is enough. In other cases, you may need good advice or participation. Here it is worth mentioning another person who was previously in the same sad situation, and tell how he got out of it. This story should not sound a direct guide to action. The main task is to show a person that he is not alone in his misfortune and that there is a way out of any situation.

How to motivate for success? Motivation can be positive and negative. If you see that a person can come to success, has all the necessary qualities and resources, pay his attention to these factors. Tell him about his talents, abilities, best qualities. And push him to decisive steps, pointing out the negative consequences of inaction. Let him see the desired version of events and understand the possibility of an undesirable development of the situation.

How to support during a period of failure? For your support to be truly valuable for a person, you need to understand what exactly is valuable to him. Help does not have to be material. Other resources may also be significant. This, for example, is the time you devote to communication. Your experience and just attention can be significant. It’s often enough just to be there.

It is important to bear a person positive in everything. Call him by name, be interested in his affairs, find time to talk with him. Naturally, we cannot devote sufficient time to all the people we meet on our way, but we are still able to show a bit of participation.
