If we give a great compliment that is thoughtful and sincere, then we feel its power. Sometimes people are so shocked at the compliment that it can shock people. I suggest to continue the conversation right after the compliment is delivered. I also wrote an article about how to deliver the most emotional compliments to knock people off their feet. http://www.conversationarts.com/2010/artofappreciation/ I found that the best thing about complimenting is that what we give has a direct impact on how we feel.

So many times, people are so consumed with what they need that they forget to help other people feel great as well. Compliments are a wonderful way to help ourselves feel good as well as helping build others up. Compliments create a stronger bond between people, reinforce positive behaviors and encourage people to excel. I'd be very happy if we could replace "constructive criticism" with compliments. The world would benefit from these deliberate acts of kindness. Take care, Guy Thank you for bringing compliments up Alvin.

It's not as if they are going to go and buy the same item, even if it does match my eyes. I agree with making it specific, though some people prefer just to be beautiful - take Blanche Devereaux from the Golden Girls: Dorothy has to tell her, "No one has ever looked as good as you and no one ever will" before Blanche is satisfied.

I started to think she only did it to get a "surprise" (usually stickers or a balloon). So, I looked at her one day & asked, "Stryker, are you complimenting people just to get prizes?" She looked up at me and answered seriously, "Yes, but I do always find something I like. When I can't find anything, I tell them I like their smile because everyone has a pretty smile."
