Seeking Credit
Seeking credit is a natural thing. It’s natural because we want to be recognized, appreciated and valued.
Sometimes this can get a little wonky. Wonky because it takes quite a bit of time to get the credit. It’s illusive because you are depending on someone else to give it to you. Grandstanding takes a ton of effort and is mostly a waste.
Seeking credit might suggest some insecurities.
Am I enough?
Will people see my hard work?
Do I matter?
Once again…your identity really matters more than you might think. If you are spending a bunch of time and effort making sure people perceive you as a hard worker you are likely not working hard enough. Put your head down and get to work.
Remember…you can be way more productive if you aren’t seeking credit.
PS: Several of you have asked if I have a writing service create these blog posts. Nope..it’s just little ole me, no AI, nothing but my pea brain spilling out thoughts as I navigate the world. *seeking credit 😆
