The acknowledgment you will likely receive today can touch you deeply, validating all you have done in your personal and professional lives. Your loved ones may surprise you by reaching out to you in order to tell you how proud they are of your accomplishments. Or you may receive unexpected recognition from a boss or supervisor for your recent endeavors. You may feel that others are finally beginning to appreciate you and this revelation can inspire you to redouble your efforts. As you labor to outdo yourself today, the praise that comes at you from the various spheres of your life can grant you the energy you need to work harder and more efficiently than ever before, whatever the task before you.

The support and affection our loved ones give us continuously refills the reservoir of strength we draw upon when we need extra energy to fulfill our objectives. No person can be an island, existing for themselves and by themselves, because everyone relies on others for aid from time to time. We derive confidence from the loving affirmations we receive from the people who care about us and our souls subsist in part on the acknowledgment they offer. When we recognize that our lives are intimately interconnected with the lives of our family and friends, we can make the most of our relationships, both giving and receiving the warmth that fuels our enthusiasm for life. You'll have little trouble devoting 100 percent of yourself to your dreams today when you relish the sweetness of your loved ones' appreciation.
