It was great hosting a live event again. I didn\u2019t hold any live edition of That 401(k) Conference because people didn\u2019t want to attend or sponsor the location I came up with (Detroit and Oakland) and Yankee Stadium was incommunicado (we\u2019re back live there on June 7th).<\/p>\n
It was well attended and I had people who wanted to take pictures with me on the field like I was some celebrity. I even had plan providers, who sponsored the event, say nice things about me, one calling me an icon.<\/p>\n
As someone who didn\u2019t get many compliments from family members or the bosses at work while lesser people did (see my article on the \u201cprop up\u201d), I try to downplay the compliments. Listen, I\u2019m just doing my job, working with clients and knocking out content that plan providers use for their business. As I have been trying to do for the last few years, I should complain less and enjoy the moment.<\/p>\n
People compliment on the good work you do, don\u2019t downplay it, like you\u2019re supposed to do your job, but accept the compliments because the nature of people is to complain more than compliment.<\/p>\n
