I would like to ask everyone to help me with a challenge of mine.  I struggle with receiving compliments and recognition.  I always just brush it off as nothing, and I need to stop doing that and be open to receiving.  I give so much of myself, asking little if anything in return.

When I worked and got awards, I would just shrug them off as it was part of my job and just something I did because it was the right thing to do or was good for the company.  I never took and understood the full weight of the compliments and recognition.

In one way, I like compliments and recognition, and in another, I don’t.  It’s just something I do, something that is a part of me.  It was strange at work, I would see other employees who were so slow and did next to nothing and it always irked me.  I always put in 110% and couldn’t understand why others didn’t.  I think that’s why they liked me so much.  I was always producing more and always asking for more responsibility always taking the initiative to create something better.  Like I said, it’s just a part of me, something I have always done.  I’m a better giver than receiver.

So, I want your help with my challenge of receiving.  If you know me, whether by an online association or you have met me in real life, I want you to leave a comment with a compliment or recognition so that I can learn to accept them more and easier.

Thanks!  As John Jackson always says, you all inspire me.  Thank you for being a part of my life.  I am truly blessed.
