The Power of Positive Feedback

We seem especially skilled at pointing out the deficiencies in others, but we often forget to give praise when things go well. The old adage, “What gets rewarded is what gets done” is at work here. Giving positive feedback can be a powerful tool to reinforce a desired behaviour. It’s a skill anyone can learn:

Do it Now. Positive feedback is most effective when it is delivered as quickly after the desired behaviour as possible. Don’t let it slide.

Do it Publicly. While negative feedback is always delivered privately, positive feedback should be given in front of others, multiplying its effects.

Be Specific. Don't give a general, "Good job, Sally." Instead, identify the specific reason or detail that’s prompting your acknowledgment.

Do it Often. Since positive feedback is “emotional fuel,” don’t neglect the small victories. Celebrate them too.

Be Authentic. Don't offer empty praise. People can see right through you. Mean it when you give positive feedback.

Giving positive feedback takes practice. Today, be on the lookout and try to catch someone doing something great. You’ll make their day and yours too.

Why does chiropractic work?
Chiropractic works because your nervous system, consisting of your brain, spinal cord and all the nerves of your body, controls and regulates every cell, tissue, organ and system of your body. A chiropractor locates and reduces areas of nervous system compromise (usually along the spine) so your capacity to heal is restored. Chiropractic works by helping your body work as it was designed.
What causes subluxations?
Chiropractors acknowledge three types of stress: physical, chemical and emotional. When the adaptive capacity of your body is compromised, weakened areas along the spine can become involved. Muscles tighten, spinal joints lock up and nearby nerves are affected. The purpose of chiropractic care is to find these areas and restore balance, alignment and motion.
