Compliments

Today I just got the coolest compliment - someone just came into my office and called me the most gorgeous lady and wished me a spectacular new year - SHINE!!!! I am so completely and utterly overwhelmed by that - what fun for a Monday.

I know that all the self help books say that you should not rely on other people to give you compliments etc. but I think its so important to acknowledge the feeling that we get from being validated by others.

Not that it should replace self validation and self esteem - but its a nice compliment to how you feel about yourself and can really give you a boost when you need it most.

Thank you XXX
