Oh, You Look Nice Today

From now on, you must keep track of every single compliment you get. The rule is this: only write down the phrase or adjective- don't record who said it or why or what you think they meant.

From now on, you must keep track of every single compliment you get.

The rule is this: only write down the phrase or adjective- don't record who said it or why or what you think they meant.

And I do mean EVERY compliment.

Even the ones you don't think matter, like, "Oh, you look nice today," or the generic ones like "Good job," or even the ones that you suspect aren't really meant as a compliment, like, "You are so funny..."

If you get one of those, then you write down:

Looks Nice

Does A Good Job
Funny

OK?

After several months, review the list and see what there is to see.

Here's one to start with:

I think you are good and brave.

(Now go write that down.)
