Find Three People to Compliment.
It was tenor, Robert Brault who said, “There is no effect more disproportionate to its cause than the happiness bestowed by a small compliment.”  In the next week find a minimum of three people to surprise with a compliment. Choose one from your family, one from your work and another from the community.  First, identify the person, single out something they did and quantify the result it had.  Next time you see them you will be ready to compliment them. Be generous with compliments and be one who is known for bestowing disproportionate happiness. “You (will) look simply marvelous.”

Directive:  Compliment people: use their name, tell them what you observed, and state the good they produced.
