Wednesday Wisdom Celebrating Achievements While sometimes I think that people celebrate achievements too much, I would like to point out that it is much better to celebrate achievements than to do nothing (or even worse, to mock the person accomplishing something). When we celebrate achievements, we encourage the person who earned it. We give them validation that their efforts were not in vain. We help them to feel like they earned something that should be useful in helping them to do better in life. There are people who refuse to celebrate achievements. I have been among cultures who mock those who achieve something. When a person there reaches a big goal or completes a big task, the response by many of the people who were onlookers is, "what comes up must come down," alluding to the imminent failure of the person who achieved something. This kind of attitude messes with the psyche of the achiever. It is based on jealousy or pessimism. Dragging people down is not helpful in any way. Celebrate people! Push them to do even more and better! Don't try to hold people back because you don't see the value in what they have accomplished. Today my son graduates from High School. I am proud of him and will celebrate his achievement. I want him to have more success in life than I ever did. I will encourage him to find success in a way that he can be productive and enjoy his chosen career field. #wednesdaywisdom #celebratesuccess

In the professional world, recognition isn’t always immediate. There are times when our efforts seem to go unnoticed, and the path to success feels like an uphill battle. But it’s during these challenging moments that our true character is forged. I’ve learned that the key to reclaiming recognition lies in our ability to keep going, no matter the obstacles. Persistence, dedication, and a relentless pursuit of our goals are what set us apart. Every setback is an opportunity to learn, grow, and come back stronger. If you find yourself struggling for acknowledgment, remember that your hard work and determination will eventually pay off. Keep pushing forward, stay true to your vision, and never lose sight of your worth. Recognition will come, and when it does, it will be all the more rewarding because of the journey you’ve undertaken. Let’s inspire each other to stay resilient and keep striving for excellence. #Perseverance #CareerGrowth #ProfessionalDevelopment #StayMotivated

As professionals, we're often so focused on the next goal that we forget to celebrate the ones we've achieved. Today, I want to take a moment to acknowledge recent milestones—mine and yours. What successes have you recently celebrated in your career or personal development? It's important to share these successes as they inspire all of us to strive for excellence. Let's discuss and learn from each other's experiences. #ProfessionalMilestones #PersonalGrowth

Recently, I came across a powerful idea: "Don't work for Awards. Work for Contributions that Make a Difference." This resonated deeply with me. It's not just the big, visible achievements that matter, but the small efforts and research that add value and make a difference. For the past five years, this has been my guiding principle. Every moment of learning from my seniors is magical and reinforces my belief in the importance of meaningful contributions. I usually don't share personal reflections on LinkedIn, but I feel compelled to express my gratitude for the path I've chosen. A few days ago, I experienced a moment of clarity, and I want to thank Rekha Bala ma'am for her invaluable guidance. From the moment we connected to our collaborative work, the experience has been indescribable. I apologize for the formality :-) , but your support has been profoundly impactful. People often say we should maintain a thin line between professionalism and humanity. Last night, I realized it's all about our approach, actions, and perspective. It's possible to balance both with the right mindset. A heartfelt thank you to my dearest mentor, Pallavi Priyadarshini, who listens patiently and guides me through every challenge. Your words, "Thank you!" have taught me that gratitude should come from the heart, not just the mouth. I'm grateful to be at this phase of my life, maturing as a human being and understanding that the world isn't a bad place. We all go through different phases in life, and if we can contribute even a little to someone's success, it’s a reason to be happy.... #Gratitude #MeaningfulWork #PersonalGrowth #ProfessionalismAndHumanity #Mentorship #PositiveImpact #ContinuousLearning #ThankYou

"Being Appreciated Will Motivate Us: The Power of Recognition"☘️💫 ⭐ Appreciation is a powerful motivator that goes beyond monetary rewards and material incentives. When we feel valued and recognized for our efforts, it boosts our morale, enhances our self-esteem, and ignites a deeper sense of purpose. Whether it’s a simple “thank you,” a public acknowledgment, or a personalized note, appreciation fosters a positive work environment, encouraging us to strive harder and be more engaged. It reinforces that our contributions matter, making us feel seen and heard. Ultimately, being appreciated not only elevates our motivation but also creates a ripple effect of positivity, driving us to achieve more and inspire others. Special thanks to Dr.Selvalakshmi VilliBharathan for the motivation mam!!! #velammalmba #AppreciationMatters #MotivationBoost #PowerOfRecognition #vcetmba #comfest #paperpresentation

🎉 Today isn't just another day – it's a tapestry of milestones woven together in a 40-year career journey, coinciding with my 60th birthday! 🎂 🌟 Forty years ago, I stepped into the professional world, bright-eyed and eager. Today, I celebrate not just four decades of work but also the profound joy of developing people. Seeing individuals grow, flourish, and succeed has been my greatest achievement, far surpassing any personal accolades or milestones. 🛤️ This journey hasn't been without its challenges. Battling cancer was a curveball that life threw my way, but it only strengthened my resolve. It taught me resilience, gratitude, and the importance of every moment. 🙏 To my colleagues, mentors, and mentees – you've been my inspiration. Each one of you has contributed a thread to the rich tapestry of my career. Our shared experiences, challenges, failures, and triumphs have not just shaped my career but also who I am today. 💡 As I reflect on these 40 years, I'm reminded of a quote by Harold Whitman: "Don't ask yourself what the world needs; ask yourself what makes you come alive, and go do that, because what the world needs is people who have come alive." In every interaction, every project, every challenge, even failure, I've sought to bring that aliveness, that passion. And I believe that's what makes the difference. 🌈 Here's to the journey, the learnings, and the many more milestones to come. If there's one thing I've learned, it's that every day is a gift – let's make the most of it! #keepattacking #WorkAnniversary #CareerJourney #Leadership #Resilience #Gratitude #PeopleDevelopment #CelebratingSuccess
