People all like hearing the praise, such as they will say you are pretty, kind, patient, smart, cute etc. What's the praise to make you feel the happiest? To me, I like people say I am smart

Any praise would make me happy. as long as you can see that the person who praised you is sincere and what he said and not only just to make you feel good. One of the common praises that i have received is "you're pretty smart", "i love you", "you're a good friend" and a lot more!

The praise I like best is when people comment or compliment me on my muscles and how they look good and that I must be working out at the gym! So my hard work pays off and it inspires me to work harder at the gym! You don't always notice it yourself but when others pay you compliments you feel much happier and know that what you are doing is paying off and people are actually noticing!

Hi! I really like hearing the word, "Congratulations", especially if this word comes from my boss. Last year, I had a lot of projects accomplished and I hope I would be able to top that this year so that I could have more congratulatory remarks. I also like hearing, "I appreciate you" or just the common "thank you". It's not really difficult to make me happy. In terms of attributes, I like it when people refer to me as smart than having to hear about my physical appearance.

I hope besides the praise from your boss, he will also give you a promotion and this is a practical praise

I like to receive compliments of an intelligent nature. I don't mind the occassional physical compliment, if I'm being honest, but it is fleeting.

I like to be told " You did a good job or you are so helpful or you are a responsible person"

Well !. Everyone likes Appreciation & Praise. Can we find any appreciation comes from their inner heart or lips? No,immediately we can't but later we can. I like genuine appreciation from genuine people.I like people say I'm Lovable & Honest. I expect their appreciation will come from their inner heart not from the lips. Am i correct?

I just love being praised whatever it is. I like attention. My wife says that I am an attention seeker. So whatever the praise is, I will accept it !

I also think smart is the best parise. I don't mean others are not important. Just they prove inferior by comparison

Ah, I'm afraid I'm one of those types that doesn't believe praise when it's given to them. If someone says I'm pretty, then I assume they're just saying that. Same for any part of my personality... However, I feel really happy when someone says they like my artwork. I still don't believe them to an extent, but just the thought of my art making someone happy makes me happy in return!
