What was the best compliment you’ve received?

To be honest, this is a difficult question for me to answer. As a man, I don’t often receive compliments, or at least not in the way that women do. It’s just not something that happens frequently, and to be fair, I’ve never really paid much attention to it.

I’m also not the type to give out compliments easily. It’s not that I don’t appreciate people, but overly sweet or flowery words just don’t come naturally to me. I sometimes wonder if women actually value compliments as much as they seem to, or if they see through them when they’re exaggerated or insincere.

That being said, I do think that the best “compliments” aren’t necessarily about appearance or charm. The most meaningful recognition I’ve received has been for my work, my reliability, or my ability to handle tough situations. When someone genuinely appreciates my skills or the effort I put into something, that feels more rewarding than any generic flattery ever could.

Maybe that’s the difference some people appreciate words, while others, like me, prefer actions and results.

What was the best compliment you’ve received?

Recently, I joined a new company in Saudi Arabia as a field supervisor for a drilling enterprise. Like any other business, this company is profit-oriented, and within the first three months of my leadership, we managed to double the production. This achievement was not only a testament to the hard work and dedication of the entire team but also a significant milestone in my career.

The best compliment I received came upon my return home for a rest period. When I walked into the office, my boss introduced me to a colleague I hadn’t met before with the words, “This is Lali, the guy who knows how to make money.” This remark filled me with pride and served as a recognition of the effort and success we had achieved.

Such a compliment, simple yet profoundly impactful, underscores the importance of teamwork, leadership, and the pursuit of excellence. It’s a reminder that in the right environment, with the right approach, remarkable achievements are possible. This story, a blend of personal achievement and collective success, stands out as a cherished memory and a significant compliment in my professional journey.

Thank you for reading.

Have a nice day
