put into to learning is what makes it all worth the while.

The second reward is being recognized and appreciated. It is not a must to be recognized

or appreciated being that the love for your job should be enough, but to know that others

recognize the hard work and emphasize that I’ve put into being as successful as I can be, would

be one of many reason’s I would continue to work even harder at making a positive impact in
