The need for recognition is what causes most problems - read this in a book and it has stayed with me ever since. It is soo true whether we agree to it or not as the human mind seeks approval from others most of the time.
While our heart jumps with joy at recognition (it could be just a single word like 'wow' from another person), what does our heart say about showering recognition on others?
I don't want to write much about this as it is a thought for each one of us to ponder over.
I honestly feel that the quality of our life depends on the extent of our need for recognition from others AND how generous we are in showering recognition on others and feeling happy for others.
The reason for this post is I came across a person recently who praises others wholeheartedly. I find this amazing as very few people feel genuinely happy for others.
Maybe only a person who is very confident and content can shower appreciation on others and feel joy with others.
