Well, I have had mine hung on my wall since then...and it has brought me much needed assurance on many occasion. Working in a different city than the rest of the HR team, I often feel like it is just me, myself and I...but these notes remind me that I am part of great team. I was thankful today to have this reminder.
Inspired by the 365grateful project by Hailey Bartholomew. I began this blog on February 28, 2014, my 46th birthday, and challenged myself to take a few moments from each day (for 365 days) to reflect on something I am grateful for, something that brings me joy or makes me smile. Mission accomplished. Then 4 years whooshed by and I have started up all this good stuff again at age 51. Here goes...the goal is at least a gratitude post each week. Cheers!

Big smiles from tiny post-it notes
Last year, at an off-site retreat our HR department participated in an exersize involving the writing of our positive impression of each teammate on a post-it and placing it on that person's back. It was a cool activity but I didn't really feel it had an impact on me at the time. Our Director suggested that we hang them up in our workspace as a reminder of the way the team sees us and to delight in the compliments.
