I’m at the Florida Storytelling Festival. I gave lengthy compliments to two different people who presented at the workshops I attended. I realized that most people (me included) tend to leave the room after a presentation and rarely stay behind to comment on the presentation. So, today I stayed behind after both presentations. I told Linda that her warmth and humor made everyone in the room want to be a storyteller. I told John that I appreciated his presentation on digging up old historical stories and giving them life with his talents. They both appreciated it and I made a connection with both of them, which makes it easier for me to talk to them again. #kindnessmatters #kindness #kindnessiscontagious @10kindnessclub #flstory
The science of kindness: Research confirms that giving compliments is an important social skill that can help strengthen relationships, build trust, and enhance positivity in social interactions.
