Credit others for a job well done

Many times we talk about a project that was handled or even an event that took place wherein a few or several people made a contribution to make things happen. It's such a great feeling to talk about the efforts of everyone especially the teamwork that was formed.

In as much as there's a myriad of talents and skills in a group, there's also a wide spectrum of personalities. The interesting part is, there's definitely no two people who are alike; there may be individuals who have the same set of work ethics but when it comes to personality types, each person falls under a certain hue.

It may not come as a surprise to you that there definitely are people who would credit themselves for the work that was done. It's alright to acknowlege your efforts and the superb performance that you did in last month's fundraising, but if you were the one to compliment your own work instead of highlighting the efforts of other members in the team, other people will definitely think that you are bragging or just a plain conceited person.

Wouldn't it be nicer if other people compliment you for a job well done? It's much sweeter to acknowledge such compliments and wonderful remarks instead of lifting up your own pedestal to make yourself look higher than others.

In any team project, it's much better to see the good things that others have done. It's more humbling to know that there definitely are people who are way better than you. Be happy and acknowledge their achievements.  In the same way, other people will also compliment you for a job well done

The world will be a nicer place to live in if we loosen the focus on ourselves and bring the spotlight on others.
