Compliments Produce Dopamine by Janice Taylor, Weight Loss Artist<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Happy #OneWord Thursday Tushkateers, Devotees of Our Lady of Weight Loss<\/a> and those who have mysteriously landed on this page (divine intervention for sure)!\u00a0\u00a0 Today\u2019s word to meditate on, live by and utilize to the max is \u201ccompliment,\u201d inspired by a compliment that I recently received, accepted and ingested!<\/p>\n

My dear friend laid a very lofty compliment on my head.\u00a0 I addition to saying \u201cThank you!\u201d (rather than disputing the compliment:\u00a0 oh no, I don\u2019t look good today<\/i>),\u00a0 I continued, \u201cI am going to save this compliment.\u00a0 I\u2019m gong to write it down, and then when I feel like crap, which I will at some point (can\u2019t be a happy idiot all the time, can I?), I\u2019m going to read it.\u00a0 In fact, I think I\u2019ll collect compliments that lighten.\u201d<\/p>\n

And so\u2026yet another \u201cWeight Loss Art\u201d project was born!\u00a0\u00a0 When someone pays me a heartfelt compliment that truly makes me feel good, I am writing them down, binding them together in some manner (haven’t quite figured out how I want to do this, but I will), and again, when needed, I\u2019ll read through and give myself a boost of positive energy.<\/p>\n

AND\u2026at the same time, it is my intention to sincerely sprinkle compliments to others throughout the day, and if the compliment is weighty enough, I may write it down and hand it to the receiver of the compliment and encourage them to hold on to it!!!<\/p>\n

Care to join me and explore the power of the #Compliment?!? \u00a0Our Lady of All Things Light and Beautiful has provided 10 #Compliment Quotes to inspire!\u00a0\u00a0 Read on, ingest, compliment!<\/p>\n

\u201cToo often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.\u201d ~ Leo Buscaglia<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em>\u201cYou’re beautiful. Yes you are, you’re very, very beautiful. Extremely beautiful.\u201d ~ Orson Welles<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you can’t say anything nice, at least have the decency to be vague.\u201d ~ Susan Andersen<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em>\u201cI have been complimented many times and they always embarrass me; I always feel they have not said enough.\u201d ~ Mark Twain<\/p>\n

\u201cEverybody likes a compliment.\u201d ~ Abraham Lincoln<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em>\u201cI will be generous with my love today. I will sprinkle compliments and uplifting words everywhere I go. I will do this knowing that my words are like seeds and when they fall on fertile soil, a reflection of those seeds will grow into something greater.\u201d ~ Steve Maraboli<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a great mistake for men to give up paying compliments, for when they give up saying what is charming, they give up thinking what is charming.\u201d ~ Oscar Wilde<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em>\u201cSincere compliments cost nothing and can accomplish so much. In ANY relationship, they are the applause that refreshes.\u201d ~ Steve Goodier<\/p>\n

\u201cAlways take a compliment, Caroline. Always take it for the way it was intended. You girls are always so quick to twist what others say. Simply say thank you and move on.\u201d ~ Alice Clayton<\/em><\/p>\n

<\/em>\u201cWhen envoys are sent with compliments in their mouths, it is a sign that the enemy wishes for a truce.\u201d ~ Sun Tzu<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a compliment for you.\u00a0 \u201cI totally appreciate your williness to play, to have fun and to compliment.\u00a0 You are fabulous!\u201d\u00a0 (Write that one down and save it for a play-less, lackluster day.)<\/p>\n
