Yes, I said FREE. Christmas doesn’t have to be all about fancy or expensive presents. More importantly than the glitz and glamourĀ  is how we make people feel. Give a gift that REALLY matters; a gift they’ll remember long after they’ve packed up the last Christmas ornament.

The three FREE Christmas gifts everyone appreciates are:

  1. YOUR FOCUS. When you’re at a holiday gathering visiting with a relative, friend or acquaintance, give them your full attention. Look them in the eyes and listen. Have you ever had a conversation with someone and they’re looking around the room as if they’re looking for someone more interesting than you to talk to or they interrupt you mid-sentence to holler across the room to someone they spotted. How did that make you feel? I’m guilty of this as well. We’ve all been there….on each end of the situation. Make it a point to change this bad habit, starting with Christmas.
  2. A SINCERE COMPLIMENT. It is an simple and easy way to make someone feel good. Be sincere. Smile. It may be just what they needed to hear to lift their spirits.
  3. A HALL PASS. Christmas can be so stressful. Adding shopping, decorating, baking and parties into one’s already busy schedule can push people to the brink. It can also be a sad time. Grieving the loss of a loved one becomes even more overwhelming during the holidays. We don’t know what’s going on in someone’s life. We don’t know the road they’ve been traveling. We haven’t walked in their shoes, so we shouldn’t judge. If someone is down or grumpy, give them a hall pass. Make the assumption that they are doing the best they can.

These three gifts, especially if give to the same person will no doubt make a positive impact on their Christmas….and yours.
