New Year comes with a whole lot of pressure to shake up your life and make grand resolutions that often become all too overwhelming to uphold. Your happiness quickly becomes compromised by what you think you should be doing and what's being dictated by magazines and mainstream media.
We get caught up in a narrative that suggests we’re not enough as we are; that we must be better versions of ourselves this year and as a result, we tend to get blindsided by farfetched goals and achievements which can actually end up making us feel pretty deflated if we can’t achieve them.
Things that you don't give yourself enough credit for:
Waking up every single day, even when you feel demotivated or find it hard.
Smiling at people because a smile makes someone's day, if not yours.
Sitting endless hours in front of a screen, for your work. It’s hard to pretend, okay?
Learning to say 'no' - even when it's the easiest word, it's not as easy to say it.
Not giving into your cravings every day and ordering food or shopping endlessly.
Being a good friend to someone and staying hours on-call even when you have a long day the next day or have some work.
Humming a song lyrics correctly.
For not typing- "lyk dis".
Surviving a heartbreak and still not giving up on love.
Being you - just as you, flawed and perfect.
Enter this New Year with nothing but an open mind andfocus on making YOU your first priority. Say no to things that don’t make your heart happy, get rid of negative energy, nourish your mind and your body and schedule yourself some downtime.
Appreciate how far you’ve come; your personal growth and success are not something to be shrugged off. Acknowledge your wins and be bloody proud of yourself. There’s no need to change who you are to fit in with someone else’s idea of perfection, you don’t need to prove anything to anyone. You are enough because you are compassionate, you are enough because you love hard, and you are enough because you make others happy. Every part of the you that already exists now is what makes you enough.“Know that you are ENOUGH”
Start where you are with what you have and do what you can do. Cheers to this new year and another chance for us to get it right.

This means that we often look outside of ourselves for praise. We want others to notice our accomplishments and we base our self-worth on their opinions. The truth is that if you're not giving yourself credit first, you'll never feel that others approve of you.
When you practice “Give Myself Credit,” you essentially become your own cheerleader. You focus on praising yourself instead of putting yourself down. By being mindful of your daily achievements, you can appreciate the progress you've made and recognize how far you've come.
The adjective unappreciated took shape in the mid-19th century. It evolved from the Latin appretiāre, "to set a value on something." The word unappreciated can refer to anything that does not receive full credit, either positive or negative.
Give credit to one of our citizens. It was a big test and you have to give credit to my troops. I would give credit to the attitude and the quality of the team. We must be happy and give credit to the players.
Most financial milestones, from getting a credit card to buying a house, require credit. If you have a thin credit file you're more likely to be turned down or face higher interest rates.
Personal credit is assessed based on factors such as credit card usage, financing repayments, and any public records associated with the individual, such as bankruptcies or foreclosures.
Acknowledge an accomplishment, as in They really should give her credit for the work she's done . [Late 1700s] The phrase is sometimes amplified to give credit where credit is due , meaning the acknowledgment should be to the person who deserves it.

Suggest potential solutions. Once you've spoken with the person who didn't give you proper credit, you can suggest potential solutions. If the project was very important and you would like the credit, ask them to revise the information and include your name.
