I clearly remember those moments - sitting at my desk, already feeling stretched and hearing I was doing such a great job.
Right after thar something new was usually added to my plate.
It often made me feel proud, trusted and valued. But at the same time I was already close to my limit.
Here’s what I didn’t get - not everything that feels like recognition is actually a reward.
Now, building my own business, I experience it differently. Here ne one is praising me every day and no one is handing me validation.
But when I show up consistently and do my work well, I see it in my results instantly. That created a much clearer connection for me between effort and outcome.
Curious how you see it - is recognition enough for you, or do you look for something more?
