3 Mistakes Women Make When Complimented

Have trouble taking a compliment? I know I do! I've been thinking about what we do when we're complimented, and more importantly, what we should do instead. Watch this video and see if you've responded to a compliment in one of these three ways.


Any of the 3-D responses to compliments sound familiar? I myself am guilty of "deflating" compliments...but I'm working on it!

    I loved this Susan! SO true!! I have a friend that does that ALL the time! She recently lost a lot of weight and when someone compliments her she carries on with" yeah right! I look so fat"! And she usually keeps going talking badly about herself. I kind of called her out on it and said - well you are 50 pounds less than me so you must think I am horrific . Then she realized what she sounded like...
    A thank you is a nice response!
    Have a pretty day!

    THANK YOU Kristin, for sharing your story about your friend. We'd all do well to have a friend like you to help keep us aware! :)

    Pretty Day back at'cha!

    I am so guilty of all of these responses!! I think this is something we need to teach our children and model for them as well. I am working on this because I LOVE giving compliments, and I should finally learn how to TAKE them as well! Thanks so much for sharing!
