Food for Thought

You can live 2 months on a good compliment and sometimes hardly get through the day on negative input. A compliment is not flattery. It refers to something specific that you did well. It’s not about looks or something superficial, it’s something meaningful.

Negativity sticks with us like heartburn. A compliment can be enjoyed with pleasure for a long time. Knowing this, why don’t people give more good compliments? In studying stress, the feeling of not being good enough seems to always pop up.

As Mark Twain put it: “I can live for two months on a good compliment.”
