On Recognition

"Why you should bother about recognition? Bothering about recognition has a meaning only if you don´t love your work; then it is meaningful, then it seems to substitute. You hate the work, you don´t like it, but you are doing it because there will be recognition; you will be appreciated, accepted. 
Rather than thinking about recognition, reconsider about your work. Do you love it? — then that is the end. If you do not love it, then change it!" Osho
