How To Make People Feel Good?

A few days ago, I was at my uncle's home. As I don't consume tea or coffee, my aunty insisted on preparing lemon juice.

When she looked for the lemon in the refrigerator, she found only three which were insufficient for preparing lemon juice and they were not fresh. She seemed sceptical about the taste of lemon juice because lemons were insufficient and stale. I was observing all these though I was busy talking with others.

By the time she served it, I was ready with a plan. After having the very first sip I acted on my plan.

Me:- Aunty, did you add anything extra to this?

She:- No, why?

Me:- This is the best lemon juice I have ever had. This is way better than the one in the market.

That one line was enough to make her feel relaxed. I could see that satisfaction on her face. She was happy now.
