i usually try to compliment others, but doing it everyday is a good goal. i think it will brighten both you and the other person’s day, and improve YOUR self-esteem because you are taking the initiative.

I’ve been doing this often enough that it is a habit now. It always make someone feel better to get a compliment, and I get a lot of positive energy generated for myself from it.
I’m a really strong believer in karma,and I /love/ the warm feeling yo uget when complimented,so I thougt to combine the two and give otehrs compliments so they feel just as good. It also makes me feel better knowing I made someone’s day a little brighter, and I try to make a sincere compliment to the epople who seem to need it most each day.
For instance, there’s this kid in my class who’s somewhat of a loner and no one really talks to him, so when he explained one of the answers in math and got it right, I just said to him “Oh my god, I never would have gotten that, awesome answer!” and he just smiled and thanked me.
It’s good to pay compliments on other ppl, especially if you pay a REAL compliment. If someone feels awkward on paying a compliment on someone, you can tell somebody “you look nice today” using the voice you’d use to say “today’s a nice day”.
Life is short so why not ditch the complaining and learn to say something good about others? That’s my goal for this year.
I’m actually getting quite good at this. I didn’t like it at first because I thought it seemed kinda forced towards the end of the day if I’d not complimented anyone. And for some reason if I knew who I wanted to compliment, I found it really hard to actually say it. No idea why. But then I realised it doesn’t have to be forced and I’ve actually really got into this one.
I’ve already confessed I’m selfish. So what better way to work towards being less selfish that to make someone feel good about themselves.
