You got this! You are almost there!

You got this!  You are almost there!

Many people, in order to encourage others, would say "You are almost there!" in Hong Kong.
Parents say cheers to their children and want them to do better.
The boss said cheers to the subordinates, think they did a good job at work, or did not make mistakes.
It's easy to say "You are almost there!", it doesn't take a second.
But will those who listen accept it? Are they happy?
Actually, I asked a girl about 10 years old before, did she like to listen to  "You are almost there!" ?
She said she didn't like it, she didn't like it at all.
Why?
Because, you only said "You are almost there!".
However, those who listen to "You are almost there!" have to do a lot before they can make a little progress.
In fact, when many people say "You are almost there!", they should not know the reaction of the listeners.
Therefore, I don't say "You are almost there!" to any people, I know very well that people who listen to "You are almost there!" are very stressed and stressful.
