My ' ACE ' Formula

It is always a dilemma how much truth we should tell a friend. If we always praise and not tell their faults we are rather an enemy then friend. Because we are indirectly approving harmful habits, attitudes, and actions. On the other hand if we point out mistakes, it leads to dislike and break off. I feel the right way is to
speak truth but with tact.
It isn't enough that you are saying the right thing, it's even more important that we say it , in a right manner, at right time, place and mood of the person. The way to give constructive criticism and friendly feedback is in three steps :-
A C E
First Appreciate :
Whatever the friend is, or has done, there is certainly some genuine aspect to appreciate. Do that.
Then Criticise :
Now point out the not so good aspects, don't twist the knife/eloborate, just state them.
Finally Encourage :
Always end by encouraging "You are good", "You did well ", "You have a great future ahead"

Miss any step, or the sequence and we may loose a friend, try this way, it builds solid bonds.

That was a lovely podcast, surely a collecters item.👏

Anu, and Barnalidi thanks. 😊
