I’ve always been interested in complimenting strangers, or people who go the extra mile. To the point where my friends are like, “why are you talking to these people?” 🤣 But it usually brings about such joyful and unexpected conversations that I just feel that much more a part of the world and I get back a lot of joy from it, too. It just bounces back. ❤️

I love this .. it’s so true .. I always try to compliment or give thanks to people because I know I would appreciate to be acknowledged.. you never know what people are going through and a little compliment can go a long way . I try to teach my kids to always give thanks and be kind 🤗

This is something I have on my list to do a better job of - both personally and professionally. People are so used to being criticized but tend to be surprised by praise and recognition. We're not doing a good enough job of regularly making people feel good!

Thank you for this reminder to take notice and acknowledge and share. I think often, I will notice, but not take the time to tell the people. Such a power reminder of making it own.

Yes! I think sometimes we have to go out of our comfort zone to verbalize it, too. It's so worth it!
