Good Morning

"Praise does not say you are perfect. It says I admire you and what you have accomplished and what I know you will go on to do. Praise is the food of the soul." - Wayne Dyer 
Good morning! So often when we are given a compliment, we brush it off or have problems absorbing the kind words of others. We may be able to give such compliments, but absorbing them is another matter indeed. What I like about today's quote is that it removes that pressure of perfection. When someone compliments you- they don't think you are perfect - no one is that naive. It means that they admire you or something you have done. Don't shortchange yourself by deflecting kind words. We live in a world where not enough kind words are said - so absorb each one that comes your way.
 
Your Turn:
Today - absorb with a simple "thank you" each compliment that comes your way. And while you're at it--offer sincere praise to at least 3 others throughout the day.
 
Today's Affirmation:
I am worth each compliment I receive and I accept them with grace.
