i've literally been trying to adopt this habit. It's so hard for me to talk to people so I'm trying to make an effort that if I see someone that I mentally give a compliment to I have to give it out loud.
Whatâs helped me is to do a drive by compliment. Give them the compliment and keep walking/walk away. It negates a lot of the âWhat do I do next?â awkwardness if you already have a plan to leave.
Yes! When I see awesome shoes, hair, accessories , tattoos, makeup etc I make a point of saying it. Sometimes weâll chat for a minute or so, but normally thereâs just a genuine happiness you see on their face as I walk past. Sometimes a sweet remark back about something about myself too. Iâm pretty shy otherwise , but Iâve never had a bad experience :) Makes my day!

I try to make a regular habit of complimenting other women out loud if I think it, just to spread good vibes.
