Encourage, Don't Criticize
There for encourage(admonish, exhort) one another and edify( strengthen and build up) one another1 Thessalonians 5:11
We can improve our relationships with others by leaps and bounds if we become encourages instead of critics. It is the greater person who does the right thing; Christs righteousness dwells in you to help you do what is right. You are great in God's eyes when you choose to do right and bless others.
No matter how rough your day is today, speak words uplift and encourage those around you. Encourage others if you notice them doing a good job - not just those who work with you. But people where ever you go, such as store clerks, auto mechanics, and waiters. Say something like "I appreciate the extra effort you are making to do your job well." You can change your life and some one else's by choosing to speak positive words.

That's great. Good for all of us to remember. (Check me out, I'm encouraging you as you encouraged me through the post and I didn't even mean to) :)
