Praise vs Respect

I don’t enjoy receiving praise. I didn’t receive a lot of it growing up, and I don’t enjoy the feeling of it now. I almost prefer the leaders in my life keep their praise and instead respect me. I value respect over praise because respect is a form of deep admiration. I prefer my boss to feel respect towards me than to lob a “nice work” to me when I do my job. There are others like me. Perhaps you are one of those people. If you are like me, or you know people like me, consider respect over praise.
