Celebrate each other, friends.

We have a limited time on the planet.

Today I got my yearly review from work. My manager spent time reading off quotes from others. After I hopped off I was in tears.

The reviews weren’t mean. Instead they were encouraging, friendly, and inspiring. They turned a previously traumatic experience into something amazing that I will never forget.

We often don’t see how we impact people beyond our work. Sincere compliments can have a profound impact on others. Give them out when you can. Definitely give them out during year end reviews.
