Are you a guiding light for others? By that, I mean, do you encourage and help motivate those around you? Or do you pull them down?
An encourager says things like "good job!" when a task is done right. And when it isn't, they say something like, "you made a great start, so now, next time if you just do this (whatever it is) you'll get an even better result."
An encourager can lift spirits. They can help a smile form. They can help a person feel better about themselves and the things they do. They can help to light the way for another; kind of like a lighthouse does for ships at sea.
But they do not make people feel bad or stupid. They don't say things like "Are you an idiot or what? A two year old can do a better job than you can!"
They don't make people feel worse than they did before you said anything to them.
So let me ask you, if you were in their place, what words would you like to hear…
I thought so:)
