Are compliments always good? 

On the surface, it seems that complimenting others and yourself helps build your confidence. But if you look deeper, you see that it destroys your confidence.

When you give others compliments, you’re training them to always worry about what others think. Nothing is more deadly than that. 

In this episode, I’m revealing why compliments and insults are more similar than you think and how to give compliments that don’t cause the other person to self-destruct. 

Here Are The Show Highlights:
