"Feedback is important, selling is important, getting the market to recognize your offering and make a sale--all important. But there's a difference between achieving your goals and realizing your work matters." from Seth's Blog: Validation is overrated
I admit, I suffer from this disorder of needing praise and recognition and approval and validation. I know I take pride in my work and I know that should be enough. I need to realize the work I do for my employer is also work I do for me. Changing my perspective will hopefully change my attitude and help me conquer the disorder. My approval of my work is more important than anyone else's.
