It sounds so simple, but giving someone a compliment can completely change someone's day. It does not matter if you do it for mom, a close friend or a stranger in the bar. We all want to feel important and valued. To do this you also need to know how to compliment!
1. Be specific and clear
If you want to give someone a compliment, do not do it in the air. If you are specific, the person in front of you will like it even more.
2. Say his / her name
People die hearing their name, especially when it comes to a compliment that will make them feel more special.
3. Show them that they are good listeners
If your girlfriend can listen to your problems for hours on end, tell her she is a good listener. Her attention has helped you more than you think so be grateful.
4. Compliment them on style
It sounds like a superficial compliment, but telling someone who has style makes it feel special.
5. Note their efforts
Ethics at work, school or family. It makes great sense if you know the other person's work. Saying this out loud encourages her, shows that you appreciate her and motivate her for more.
6. Say out loud how good they are (if any)
Compliments on personality are worth even more than just a nice word on appearance. Do it more often when you feel it.
7. Keep the focus on them.
Do not compliment others on fishing for themselves. Give energy that others would not want to receive.
8. Let them know they have an impact on you
People often do not know how much influence they have on others. Remind them from time to time to make them feel even better.
9. Compliment a stranger
Remember that kind words are not just for colleagues and friends. If the bartender gave you a super cocktail, why not say it out loud? People also need to hear things they do not expect to hear.
10. Focus on what matters to them
Another way to give a good compliment is to stick to their interests and show them what you admire most.
