I am having a pretty shitty day today, but I still wanted to recognize you for doing so well and know that you can still do anything you want to do.

I like how you are choosing to make other people's day better. Good vibes, karma, and blessings coming your way.

@Demolishun I appreciate that

Thank u for this, I really needed it today

Is it because you're taking a huge shit all day like i am

I thought you took this quote from LinkedIn

@asgs lol I hope I’m not that corny to you

@chonky-quiche You can't acknowledge something you don't know about. And that very fact is why it sounds like the prototypical motivational phrase spoken by the prototypical manager to me too.

You could as well have congratulated the whole DevRant audience to eating a delicious jam sandwich. Did they eat it and if so, was it delicious? That are both known unknowns of which your audience certainly knows that they are also known unknowns to you.

Motivational messages targetting people with a fully developed brain should be about things you at least could actually know about the person or its environment. And yes, that implies, that motivationals targetting a broad audience are pretty hard to get right.

What is pretty darn easy on the other hand is to just wish everyone a good day. Even the standard phrase conveys a truer feeling than the motiovational consisting of an obviously false assertion...

But because of your genuine positivity, i am sure, that you will do well too.

Thanks 💪🏿💪🏿
