HONOR

HONOR: Highlighting … Others … 2 … Nurture … Ongoing … Rejuvenation

One of the cool things people can do for someone is to honor them. Oftentimes we honor someone if they have done something extraordinary. We may honor someone for something they have done once (e.g. saved a life) or something they have done on a daily basis (e.g. a beloved teacher). When we honor someone it is a way we can show appreciation.

Perhaps another way we can think about how we can HONOR someone is to look at it as a way we can re-energize and empower them. Think about HONOR as a way of HIGHLIGHTING OTHERS in order to NURTURE their ONGOING REJUVENATION. When we call out (i.e. highlight) the great accomplishments or efforts of others it can be a way of nurturing their continuation of these activities and in the process re-energize or rejuvenate them in an ongoing fashion. Sometimes a word of appreciation can go a long way because it shows people noticed and cared.

Can you think of someone you would like to HONOR? Has it been an HONOR to know them? Think of the message we can convey when we take time to HONOR someone today!

  1. Hi Dave! I would like to "HONOR" you for the powerfully inspiring thoughts that flow through your "backronyms". It's an honor to know you and to be able to come here for a "boost". Thanks!

  2. Thomas, Thank you for the HONOR. I am going to revert back to my childhood and say "it takes one to know one". I appreciate your words of encouragement!
