National “Give a Compliment Day”

August 17, 2015 by Scott "Q" Marcus Leave a Comment

It’s national “Give a Compliment Day.”


Okay, I lied.

I am not familiar with any holiday by that name on any date but I figured it couldn’t hurt to make one, could it?

So, how do you celebrate it? [Read more…]

It’s OK to Ask for Praise

December 3, 2012 by Scott "Q" Marcus Leave a Comment

It’s OK to ask someone to praise you once in awhile.

No matter how old we are, we need to be recognized for what we do. It’s nice when it “just happens.” However, sometimes, it doesn’t. Unfortunately, when it doesn’t happen, many times we take that as a reason to get resentful. Not only does that ruin our attitude and make us feel bad, but it can damage the relationships that matter most to us.

Instead of feeling bad about not being recognized, point out what you did. Say how you feel about it. Ask to be recognized.

You did well. You deserve it. It’s fine to ask for it.

Just remember to praise and compliment others as often as you can too.

Self-Talk and Self-Care After Mistakes

Anti-Perfectionism Affirmation

Be Kind to Yourself

We tend to be very quick to blame ourselves and very slow to accept compliments. A compliment denied is punishment self inflicted. When we feel bad, we engage in comforting behaviors; which many times are the very behaviors we are trying to change. Look for ways to complement yourself for what you do rather than beat yourself up for what you did not do. (That is not to say deny the problem, just be as kind to yourself about your slip-ups as you would be to a child.)

I will forgive myself for the errors I made today. I will correct them, but do so in a state of grace for all concerned, including myself.
