My blog today borders around the word "Compliment". I decided to share this with us because it is something if feel will be beneficial to us all. I want to believe quite a remarkable number of us here do engage in what am about to share. If you've not then this post will be very useful.
Have you ever dressed up before and you don't even feel like you look good in that dress. You feel if there was something better to put on you would really have gone for it.
At that point you tend to move out with less confidence in contrast to
the way you would have if you had look at yourself in the mirror and smiled with full satisfaction before stepping out.
What you need at his point is not a word that will further make you feel really less of yourselve or tear you apart because of your appearance. This is where compliment comes in.
The truth is that what you are putting on might not really be bad ad bad as you think,it just that you don't feel comfortable in it. You know, a good compliment like "Wao! I love your shirt it looks really good on you" from someone will help bring back that self confidence even though you still have iota of doubt but one thing is sure your mind will process the information and make you feel better. If you by any chance get another,your day will be made already for that day.
You don't really need to totally love what someone is putting on before giving a good compliment. It could be just the shirt or the shoes or anything that catches your attention. Don't just keep silent about it.
Compliment goes beyond just saying something about the way a person appears or dresses. You can also give compliment on a job welldone, about a person's impeccable character and many more.
The idea is don't just keep shut when you see something good. Say something about it. It's funny how that an average person talk so derogatorily about the bad sides of people yet ignore the good part of them.
I believe if we focus on complimenting or appreciate people for the good they do or their good sides,we will see more improvement in their lifestyle such that the bad about them begins to fade away because an average man like it when he is praised or appreciated.
He will then focus more on that part that he feels people will like to see him improve on and by so doing,he becomes better. This is the power of compliment and appreciation. You're appreciation can even go beyond just words or kind. You could give money too..
I think this writeup will be incomplete if I don't include this...that if you won't compliment or appreciate people,then it wise to keep such than to make a statement that will demoralize and hurt them emotionally.
Some people find it hard to recover from emotional hurt, I even think emotional wound hurts more than physical. Let's be people that heal and encourage with our words. You never know who would find strength and courage in them to face life against all odds.
I will like to wrap it here. I want to believe you learnt something from this write up. Do enjoy your day.
Happy Sunday from this part of Nigeria.
