Doing Your Best Is All You Can Ask
Hi WA Friends,
I hope you are keeping well wherever you are in this world.
For the last while, I have had way too much stress on my plate and it's starting to get old. It's soon time for me to rethink a lot of things I am currently working on.
But what stood out like a total surprise was when today when one of my toughest clients complimented me on an idea I'd recently had.
Now, it wasn't rocket science from my point of view. But, it offered a different perspective on how to quickly and efficiently resolve an issue that didn't need to be as big a deal as it seemed.
When I heard, "you had a good idea" I nearly fell over. Seriously!
The world we live in is often so highly charged with negativity that it is rare to receive a pat on the back for something well done. Even more so when you offer up a strategy that others deem valuable.
So, that got me to thinking...and I just wanted to remind YOU that you are doing a fantastic job! Have you heard that lately? Bet you haven't.
You are giving it your all in work, your online business and your life in general.
With so much to deal with anymore, a little praise can often make your spirits soar giving you that little boost to keep on going, even when all you might really want to do is run away from it all.
Know that you are valued. You are worthy and you are doing the best you can given what you have at the present time. That's all one can ask for.
And now you've heard it for the day. Take that compliment from wherever you get it and run with it!
Have a super rest of your day,
Susan

Hey Susan, thanks for sharing this reminder about what is truly the most important in all our relationships in life... From personal to business relationships. You said, "That's all one can ask for," and it is the bull's eye brutal truth! Here is the proof...
"The biggest principle in human nature is the craving to be sincerely appreciated and to feel important" - Dale Carnegie.
Another woman who is one of my fellow writers on Medium said she has recently started praising herself and appreciating her smallest deeds, and that made her feel so great and worthy. Moral: even if nobody else appreciates our good deeds and actions, we can start appreciating them ourselves. It is mystical and true magic. It is what we crave, so let us feed that hunger. It will propel us to success.
Hey Hein…I’m glad you enjoyed it and thanks for taking the time to read and comment. It is appreciated! That quote and personal idea is so inspiring and true. Sometimes we need to learn to give ourselves what we can’t get from others. That’s an awesome place to start. Great message!
Thank you for your heartfelt message Susan. Really appreciated the timing of that.
I'm happy you experienced the blessing of positivity from your client amidst all the stress you have been feeling.
I very much appreciate you and you being part of the WA community.
Keep being you and the beautiful kind person you are.
Stay well

Thank you so much for your kind sentiments, Tracy, I truly appreciate hearing that and likewise to you. All we can do is try to be our best. And if it’s not enough for others, that’s alright too.
Have a lovely rest of your day and take care! 😎👍🏻
You're welcome Susan.
That is so true and the best way to think.
Enjoy your weekend.

Thank you for that Susan well stated.
Often ideas and thoughts are so simple that, unfortunately, we as humans tend to over-complicate things when they shouldn't be.
Doing your best is all you can do for that particular moment in time.
Enjoy your day and thank you for sharing

You are welcome Susan and yes at times all we see is the woods and forget to really open our eyes and look deeper.
Enjoy your day and rest of the week.

Your message truly warmed my heart. It's incredibly uplifting to hear about the positive impact you've made, especially amidst the stress and challenges you've been facing. Your ability to offer a fresh perspective and receive recognition for it speaks volumes about your resilience and creativity.
And let me just say, your kind words couldn't have come at a better time. It's easy to get caught up in the daily grind and forget to acknowledge our own efforts. Your encouragement serves as a timely reminder that every step forward, no matter how small, deserves recognition.
Thank you for spreading such positivity and for reminding me of the importance of acknowledging our own accomplishments. Your support means the world, and I'm truly grateful for it. Wishing you continued success and joy in all your endeavors. Keep shining bright!
