Accept compliments in a charismatic way.

from The Charisma Myth: How Anyone Can Master the Art and Science of Personal Magnetism by Olivia Fox Cabane

Everyone feels a little bit awkward accepting a compliment. Because of this feeling, many people don’t do it correctly and lose charisma points. Here is a nearly perfect way to accept a compliment.

How to Apply This

When someone gives you a compliment, react in this way:

  1. Stop.

  2. Absorb the compliment.
    Enjoy it.

  3. Show on your face that you’re absorbing it.
    Let the other person see that what he said had an impact.

  4. Thank them.
    Say, “Thank you very much.” You can add, “You made my day.”
