They found that the students didn't like to write the notes because they had to think too much about them. They worried about what to write and how to write it. The receiver, however, enjoyed the notes. “When you are a receiver you can feel the warmth of the note,” one of the receivers said.
The writers also thought it might be awkward (尴尬的) for the receiver to receive a thank-you note, but this was not true. “The receivers feel quite warm,” Kumar says. “They don't really feel awkward at all.”
“If people knew that writing a thank-you note could have such a big influence (影响) on others, they would do it more often,” Kumar says.
“Simple, small changes in our everyday lives can make a big difference in how we treat (对待) other people, so start from writing the thank-you note,”Kumar says.
