Do you tell the people around you that you are proud of them quite often? When they succeed at something or had done a good job do you give them encouragement? Or do you find you don't do this enough.. And you need to do it more often?
Do you feel that you need to have people tell you that there proud of you as well in return?! Or are you completely confident on your own without having to have any of that encouragement ever? I'd love to hear your feelings..
Thank you for sharing with me! xx

I do tell people I'm proud of them and I make sure I appreciate their achievements and efforts. I wasn't like that before and I expected appreciation but never gave any. That was obviously mean of me and one fine day it dawned on me out of the blue that to receive I must give too. I know how it feels to go unappreciated and taken for granted so I don't want others to feel the same. I do want people to appreciate and recognize my efforts,I recently published my first poetry book,the whole world seems to be proud of me except my hubby who is not very supportive, he isn't as excited as me I don't know why. I of course always tell him how proud I am to have a hubby who is very good with finances and is practical in life. I appreciate the other things he does too, but he never does so. Well I'm gald my parents and the others in the family are proud, my neighbour read my book too and she was very impressed..that's all I need:)

I do when I feel appreciative or when people do something right. Otherwise, why would I go around telling people I can proud of them for no reason? They are gonna think me weird. :P
But yes, I don't need people to tell me I am good. I already know lol. :PP
