Always make your compliment simple and to-the-point. Do not try to exaggerate a simple comment in order to make it sound sincere. It will only sound phony and plastic. Give a smile while complimenting someone. A smile is a sure way of getting response from anyone. If they are truly flattered by your compliments they will reveal it in their smile.

Choose an appropriate moment to give a compliment. Do not just follow another person’s footsteps and do the same they have already done. Try to show that you have real interest in someone and that you are truly impressed by them before making a sincere compliment. Offer your compliments immediately after a big occasion, for example graduation, birthday, promotion and so on. If you keep on delaying the compliment so that you could come up with appropriate words will only be met with little interest and appreciation. Be the first one to go ahead and compliment a person if something has happened on the spot, right there and then.

Natural compliments are the ones that are spontaneous. Do not introduce heavy words or phrases that may sound rehearsed or repeated. Try to look the person in the eye and give the compliment slowly by emphasizing on each and every word. A written compliment is often a great way to express your true feelings. It is received with much appreciation because writing something for someone means you have taken some time out of your busy life to think of that person and their achievements. Also, complimenting in front of others without hesitation shows that you genuinely like a person.

In order to give importance to other people you have to make yourself humble. Learn to accept other people’s achievements and happy moments with an open heart. Only then you will be able to give compliments that are original and straight from the heart.{mosgoogle left}
