Set your compliments free!

Want an ultra-simple way to make the world a better place that you can put into action immediately?

Set your compliments free! 

One of the things that inspires me about the Ripple Legacy concept is how little it takes to make an impact. We have the potential to change the world around us simply through the everyday choices we make and actions we take.

One of the easiest things you can do is give voice to the stream of compliments in your head that are already bouncing around in your head.

Think about it. As you go through your day, how often do you have a positive thought about someone?  Maybe you like someone’s sweater. Or you think a co-worker did a great job with a presentation. Maybe you’re impressed by the way the barista at your local coffee shop treated a difficult customer in line in front of you.

Imagine if you made a commitment to setting your compliments free. When it feels appropriate, let that compliment out of your head and pay it to the person in question.

Now imagine doing that every day for the rest of your life. Think how many compliments would that be! And you never know what impact those compliments have. Not only that, it just plain feels good to do.

While you’re imagining, imagine the impact if 20% of the people out there started making this a habit. That would be a mind-bogglingly huge number of compliments set free! The cumulative positive potential of that is enormous.

What are you waiting for? Open the door and let those compliments fly!
