For 2 months we humiliate one plant and praise another. see the results

Every adult knows how much a word can hurt. And this fact was demonstrated by an experiment carried out by Ikea, a Swedish furniture and decoration company. For this, the company’s employees took 2 identical plants to an ordinary school, one of which was regularly insulted, and the other – praised. The result was impressive and, therefore, we decided to repeat this experience.

Let’s talk about the experiment and its results especially for the readers of the awesome.club.

What did IKEA achieve?

The result leaves no doubt: the plant that was frequently bullied, at the end of the experiment, proved to be weaker. But our team wanted to prove this and decided to see if they could get the same result by running a similar test.

For the experiment, we bought two identical plants

The plant on the left side was always scolded and insulted and the one on the right side praised. As the plants had to hear our voices as long as possible and very often, we recorded phrase variants and played them back to the plants on a daily basis.

Once every 3 or 5 days, we would change the “playlist” so that the same words wouldn’t tire the plants.

During the recordings, we tried to say expressions with emotional content, so that the plant not only ‘hears’ the words, but also ‘feels’ them.

The plant we decided to praise heard absolutely different words every day:

“I have never seen anything so wonderful!” “You will grow so big, you will be seen from space!” “I believe in you and I love you!” “I will never throw you away and I will not give you to anyone!” “You are the best plant in my life!”

The first results were seen approximately within a month of starting the experiment.

The plant we were scolding turned out to be very resistant. It hasn’t even started to wilt, but it definitely took longer to grow.

The plant that we praised with all our might began to grow even a little disproportionately. And such a trend was observed about a month later.

But something unexpected happened

The employee responsible for the experiment went on vacation. For 10 days, the plants were without the daily dose of praise/rudeness. As a result, the plant that got used to the insults began to grow a little; already the plant we praised began to actively dry up: the leaves fell off or withered. But a few days after playback of the recordings resumed, the latter regained some life.

Today they look like this:

Although we initially started this experiment with skepticism, we have to recognize that the praised plant actually started to grow faster than the one we scolded. We hope this does not affect the “expiatory plan”.

Conclusion

A rude word, however subtle it may seem, is still rude. And she can become “a whip”, even for the most resistant people. At the very least, it can halt development, like what happened to our plants, and at the most, it can kill, like in the IKEA experiment.

Delicate speech helps in development, gives a push to growth. But for those who are used to hearing too many compliments, it is very difficult to survive without them.

Such results make us think about the strengths of words and the need to start carefully controlling what comes out of our mouth, since the scars created by our speech do not heal.

And you, do you usually offend people with words? Have you ever thought about the strength of what you say, before pronouncing it?
