Praise, (it came along with the situation I mention) goes a long way and not just the praise from my clients/Director but the praise I was subsequently able to heap upon those around me (admin and support teams and colleagues for instance) for what they do to make what I do look seamless, professional and efficient. Genuine praise, gratitude and appreciation is a powerful thing.

I guess I try to show the same here to people who engage regularly and with personality and relevance, and for other reasons as well. I appreciate it and like to show that as best I can. I fail slot, but succeed sometimes I think.

Anyway, the power of a thank you or some genuine comments of praise and appreciation can be such powerful things.

I think we can safely say that you succeed.

Thank you, I appreciate you saying so.
