Is it easy or hard for you to give other people praise and credit? Some people don't receive a lot of praise and credit from their parents when they are growing up or even "thank you's" for what they do...We live in such a competitive society. A lot of people try to "top" each other instead of taking the time to praise or thank someone else for their ideas and contributions. Have you noticed this?...Do you receive praise and credit from the people in your life? Are you comfortable praising others? Thanks...
Yes, I receive praise and credit from other people. I am also comfortable giving it out to other people. I am not a very competitive person who has to "win" all the time. As for growing up, I received praise and credit from my family. I was also taught to say "thank you" to those who do things for me.
I think someone has insecurity problems if they cannot praise or give credit to others.
Not nearly as much as I should be... It just wasn't something done much in my family and society when I was growing up. I'm trying to be more mindful of it, but it doesn't come naturally to me.

When I see someone doing well, it is a source of hope and faith. It's an affirmation of our common challenge to win at the game of life. Probably sounds corny and fake, but that's how I see it. I admit there have been times in my life when that sentiment didn't come so easily, when my first instinct was to feel threatened; like, why not me?! But in truth that was when I was very young. By now I realize that this life is hard on all of us, that nobody, regardless of how it may seem is without struggle, and I am generous with that acknowledgment.
I give praise, credit and thank yous out like candy. Ninety percent of the time they are sincere.
Being a parent I think it is important, when warranted, to encourage your children and give them confidence. It also makes people feel appreciated.
It has been my experience with most of the men in my life that they need praise and credit even when something isn’t really praise worthy.
I do also receive praise/credit/thank you mostly within my work environment.

I both receive and give when it's due.
People who can't give have emotional issues (or some kind of issue).
