Start a Praise Folder

I keep a praise folder. Any time someone gives me a compliment or praises work we do at the Resource Center it goes in my praise folder.

These compliments or praise come in handy for

• performance appraisals
• evaluations
• summary of accomplishments
• cover letters
• interviews

Also, anyone who has sent you a compliment is someone to keep on file as a potential reference (hat tip for this idea to Paula Silha!)
