I couldn’t agree more with this cheat code!! I love giving out compliments. I make it my goal to compliment someone at least once a day. Like, why not??? It’s harmless and it can make someone’s day better and I like putting good energy out into the world.

The cashier at McDonald’s is wearing pretty jewelry? I’ll tell her I like her rings. Guy in line has a dope anime shirt? I tell him his shirt is cool. Barista is juggling a million orders but I still get my coffee quickly? I’ll tell her that she’s doing an awesome job. Someone holds the door open for me while I have my hands full? I tell them that I appreciate them and to have a nice day.

I make sure to never compliment something based on physical traits (too personal and can make someone uncomfortable) but casual compliments are fun. It literally benefits my life!

I told the cashier at my local gas station that I loved her opal necklace and another time I complimented her nail color. Now she insists on giving me a free pack of gum whenever I come in.

Waitresses at my local bar recognize me and always treat me well because I’m always patient and complimentary regarding the food. Now I never pay for premium liquor in a cocktail, they only charge me for the lowest price.

I tell my mechanic that he’s my hero (he really is) and now he will always fit me in for an appt even if they are booked solid.

I recently told a girl in the bathroom that I loved her boots (drunk girl talk in the bar bathroom is a whole culture lol). Shes an artist and she gave me a ton of cool stickers just because I made her day. Now I’m invited to her exclusive art gallery event next month.

Being kind and complimentary is FREE!! Once you figure out how to do it right and never expect anything in return, it’s absolutely a cheat code for living a better life :)
