3. Sense of Accomplishment - Building a Sense of Accomplishment!
   When was the last time you were thanked for something you did well? When was the last time someone complimented you for the effort you put into a task—regardless of how the task turned out? One of the most important things that we can do one for another is to visibly value and celebrate accomplishments, both large and small.
    

What we mean by building a sense of accomplishment is giving recognition of effort and perseverance of a person's success. In other words, we are recognizing personal growth and effort, not simply measurable outcomes and countable successes.

What a blessing it is to have one's hard work and loyalty recognized and rewarded, to have one's successes shared with other people, to have individual and group efforts celebrated and encouraged, regardless of the outcome, and to have others help us achieve our goals. Some questions we can ask of ourselves regarding building a sense of accomplishment in others are:

1. What ways am I inclined to help others meet their goals?
2. What ways do I recognized achievements of others?
3. How do I recognize the efforts of others, regardless of outcome?

Furthermore, building that sense of accomplishment in others will often increase their motivation and satisfaction.

Remember: You are here to make a difference!
