d.      Supporting Points (man idea of each paragraph)

In this article there are 8 paragraphs, while the supporting points in each paragraph are:

1.      Thank you is the most underrapciated and underused phrase on the planet, It’s appropriate in almost any situation and it’s a better response than most things we say.

2.      Simply saying “Thank You” fully acknowledges the person making the compliment and allows you to enjoy the moment as well.

3.      Saying “Thank You” turns things around and acknowledges the sacrifices others have made by waiting.”Thank You for Waiting”.

4.      What we fail to realize is that it doesn’t matter if you don’t know what to say, All you need is to be present and thank you them for trusting you.

5.      Nobody likes to fail, but failure is just a data point, respond to useful feedback with a thank you and use it to improve.

6.      When you thank someone for criticizing you, it immediately neutralizes the power of their statement.
