When someone gets an achievement, we send them congratulatory messages and give them gifts, so they will know we are proud of them. The secret in creating a message is that it should come from the heart and be sincere, so the recipient will feel the sincerity and love. Congratulating someone helps them feel appreciated, and it can motivate them to keep shining.
