Stop Expecting Recognition

Don't expect to get recognized every time you do something good.

You're supposed to do good...

You're supposed to execute...

You're supposed to work hard...

...and if you're expecting someone to come along and give you a pat on the back...

You're going to be very disappointed.

You checked all the boxes...

Great.

So can most people.

If you actually want to be recognized...

Focus on dominating...

Focus on solving problems...

Focus on improving yourself daily...

Focus on helping other people level up...

Do it consistently.

Do it with extreme attention to detail.

Do it with urgency.

Do it for 10-20 years straight.

Then, maybe you've earned some praise.

Average doesn't deserve recognition.

Excellence does.
