I pondered my options. Should I confront him directly, risking a potential argument? Or should I subtly hint at my disapproval, hoping he’d get the message? After much deliberation, I decided on a more tactful approach.
I started by complimenting him on other aspects of his appearance. “You look so handsome in that new sweater,” I said, trying to steer the conversation away from his hair. Then, I casually mentioned a news article about the trend of older men embracing their natural gray hair. I emphasized how attractive and distinguished it can make a man look.
He listened intently, a thoughtful expression on his face. I could see the wheels turning in his head. A few days later, he surprised me. He had stopped dyeing his hair! He looked refreshed, more natural, and surprisingly younger.
I realized that sometimes, a gentle nudge is all it takes. Instead of criticizing, I had simply presented a different perspective. And in the end, he made the right choice.
A few weeks later, we were out to dinner with some old friends. As we were waiting for our table, a young woman approached us. She complimented my husband on his “silver fox” look and asked him what hair dye he used. He chuckled and admitted that he hadn’t dyed his hair in weeks. The woman was surprised and impressed.
“You should keep it this way,” she said. “It’s so much more attractive.”
My husband beamed with pride. I couldn’t help but smile. It seemed that everyone else could see what I had been trying to tell him all along.
The incident taught me a valuable lesson: sometimes, the best approach is not to criticize, but to guide and suggest. By gently nudging him in the right direction, I helped him make a decision that not only improved his appearance but also boosted his self-confidence.
Walmart delivers great news for customers and is now more committed to making customers happy and having meaningful talks.
Shopping can be annoying with long lines and hard-to-find items. To fix this, stores Iike Walmart introduced self-checkout lanes and “Scan and Go” tech. But some people didn’t like it – they missed the personal touch and found it too much work. Randy Parraz from Making Change at Walmart said customers shouldn’t do cashier work just because Walmart doesn’t want to pay. Walmart heard this and decided not to add more automation.
Instead, they’ll hire more cashiers to make customers happy.
Walmart is now more committed to making customers happy and having meaningfuI talks. This teaches businesses a lesson: being efficient is good, but it’s also important to keep things positive, especially in a world that’s getting more automated.
The human connection is still really important.
