Give self recognition

"I learned so much about this business," BeRt glowed. "I am so proud of myself."

When I do something I am proud of, I dwell on it a little, praise myself for it, relish the experience, take it in.

It is up to us to give ourselves recognition. If we wait for it to come from others, we feel resentful when it doesn't and when it does, we may reject it.
