One Positive Action

Compliment a Stranger

You know that feeling when someone says something nice about you out of nowhere? It's like instant sunshine. The surprise and the joy, all of being a nice experience to have. Today's challenge is about becoming that sunshine for someone else. It’s as simple as giving one genuine compliment to a stranger.

Do your best not to use a weird pickup line or fake flattery, but something real you actually notice. Maybe it's the way someone's laugh lights up the coffee shop, or how patiently they're helping their kid tie their shoes. The trick is being authentic, and noticing people beyond their appearance. It might feel awkward at first, but spreading kindness is always rewarding for both parties.

You're probably going to make someone's day, and while also doing something for yourself. Each time you choose to be brave instead of staying safe, you're building up your confidence. You are slowing down your busy day by taking notice of the people around you and their good qualities.

Before you hit the pillow tonight, try complimenting three strangers. Say something like, "I love your style," "You have such a great smile," or "You’re a really great mom (or dad!)." Whatever you notice or comes naturally to you. Say it, smile, and watch how both of your days get a little brighter.
