Some people notice the BEAUTIFUL view.
Some people notice only the DIRTY window!

Your happiness depends on what you DECIDE to notice.

So here's today's exercise:
Step 1: Look for ONE QUALITY in every person you meet.
Stepo 2: Give them a COMPLIMENT . . .

"That is a stunning outfit!"
"You are an inspiring teacher."
"You have a beautiful smile!"

Remember, a compliment is NOT flattery!
Flattery is insincere.
A compliment is SINCERE RECOGNITION of someone's qualities.

Most people feel UNDER-APPRECIATED!
When you give them compliments, you light up their day.

And here's the bonus:

To pay compliments, you have to focus on the positive.
So it makes YOU happier! :)

Thank you! What a wonderful idea. I tried something like that at work. Just told our employees "Thank you" "I like what you did there, good job."

Everyone was so happy that day, and projects were done smoothly, we were swampled busy, but everyone's spirits stayed up.

It's just amazing how a few good comments can boost someones outlook. I belive it when it was stated that people feel under-appreciated!

Yeah, compliments are always a good thing in my book. So, I do give them whenever I can for those who really deserve it.
