The art of the compliment

Do you want to create magic in someone’s day today?  Offer them a compliment.  Leave it there, no strings attached.  Don’t use the compliment to sandwich a criticism.  Leave out the ‘but’.  You did a great job!

And when you are given a compliment, just say thank you.  Don’t brush it off, no excuses, no personal put downs, just “Thank you.”

Compliments are gifts, and they are free.
