Easy Credit

"[Hall of Fame coach] Red Holzman once told me that the true measure of a star was his ability to make the people around him look good." -- Phil Jackson

Outside the lines of the court, is there an easier way to do that than to give credit where credit is due?

- Your co-worker catches a mistake that would have ruined the project. Why not tell the boss?

- Your insurance claim rep was friendly and helpful. Why not call the service hotline with praise?

- Your waiter went the extra mile. How about an extra tip or a comment card?

- Your spouse did the laundry. How about a hug?
