Compliments Day...
Today is compliment day.
Getting a compliment is always fun, giving a compliment is also.
The world would be so much more fun if we received more compliments every day and we wouldn't focus on all the negative. Yet it is in us to often only see the negative. Is it due to the system, our upbringing or ourselves? I don't know, but when I look around me, I often see that we are surrounded earlier with the emphasis of what one does not do well and not with the uplifting and motivating pep talk that we just need to grow.
At school, in my eyes, the emphasis was and is still placed on your knowledge, you were given a grade on your abilities, not on your commitment or on your situation. On your work, you are reminded of what you have not done or have not done well almost every day, while it is a lot more to praise actions. When we get older, the phrase: 'I can't do that anymore' also much more often than the thoughts on what we can still do.
A change of mentality is really going on here and that starts with yourself.
