I read recently (somewhere? . Maybe here? ) that listening to others (without judgment) is a most wonder gift to give everybody and aligned to that is something i read (elsewhere? ) that sharing a compliment with others that you may wish had been told to you all your life long is a source of great joy to both of you and always comes across as heartfelt.
In my case, for instance, i always felt that i was lacking in good(translate:smart) ideas that contributed something helpful to others either individually or in a group setting. So now i am careful to look for that quality in others and tell them how helpful their idea(s) was to me (when true). I have noticed that i get such comments back more frequently than i ever noticed before.
But, of course, you already know this! :>)
