If recognition is supposed to be positive, why do we often get embarrassed or self-conscious when being praised by others? Why, when being recognized, do we often questions others’ intentions (What do they really want from me?) Why is it when people praise us we often tend to focus on the things we didn’t do, leaving us feeling like what we do is never enough?
