Most people love to be noticed, but few know how to accept a compliment gracefully. It’s just like accepting a gift, even if you don't like it~you always say thank you.  You don't want to hurt the feelings of the person giving you the gift. 

It’s the same for complements. 

When someone gives you a compliment wether you agree or not, just say THANK YOU. 

You have to OWN IT! Look them in eye, smile and take a moment to appreciate what they have said, then be gracious by saying thank you. 

When you accept a compliment it shows the other person that you trust their judgment and opinion. 

Here are great responses for how to accept a complement: 

Thank you, that means a lot. 

I appreciate that, thank you. 

I really needed that today, Thank you. 

Thank you, that’s a lovely thing to say. 

Thank you,  that makes me feel really good. 

Thank you, that’s so nice. 

Thank you, you're very kind. 

and remember if it fits, give them a compliment back… never hurts to leave some sparkle every where you go….
