My impulse is to always discount compliments when they're given to me. I end up trying to argue the complimentor out of the compliment which usually just leads to an even more awkward exchange of compliments and denials. So I've tried to make myself just say, "thanks". It was hard at first but it's easier now and it does feel pretty good.
