As regards my post of yesterday, I talked about "a gift is priceless" here is the continuation

The reason, most times, is how and when the gifts came and and sometimes who the giver is. For this purpose, it is wise to acquire the know-how on gift-giving in order to make your gift leave a memorable impression and outlive its face value. These five magical keys will surely help:

  1. THE HOW

  2. THE WHEN

  3. THE GIFT

  4. THE RECEIVER

  5. THE GIVER

  6. THE HOW: When giving gifts, let your focus be more on your gesture than on the gift. Do not say "Here, take, I got this for you". If you do this, the gift has lost its spark (even if it cost you a fortune to get it) you know why? It lacks affection. As much as possible, always let your opening style out class the present you are offering.

Many people give gifts at anytime and anyhow with the opinion that they are not among the category of fussy people, who love to make much-ado-about-nothing. I understand this sentiment, but critically, every human being appreciates being given a memorable and royal treatment, even when you are giving to them.

Therefore as long as we are all living and interacting with humans in this respect, we must treat them as they would find interesting. There are ways to offer gifts to people and your gift will become immortalized. The other norms of giving are:

  1. THE WHEN: Always do your best to pick the right moment. A gift should not be expected. It works better as a suprise. Give gifts when the person least expects or deserves. If someone mentions what he or she would want to have, you could just delay for a while. This will pre-suppose that you worked towards getting him or her, the gift.

  2. THE GIFT: When you perceive a need or know a favorite, go ahead and present it as a present. Also the packaging of the gift must have an aesthetic appeal. Try to generate suspense and excitement by wrapping the gift in a way that would make the unwrapping adventurous. Practice this!

  3. THE RECEIVER: Your gift reveals how much you know of the person you are giving it to. Study people. Don't just presume, for example, that all women love perfumes. Listen carefully to his or her wishes and watch the things he or she approves of.

  4. THE GIVER: The gift cannot and should not replace the giver. You must give more than the gift. Give yourself sacrificially to be valuable to the person you are giving the gift to. Remember, THE GIFT WITHOUT THE GIVER IS BARE "RUSSELL LOWELL".
