It’s easy to be overlooked. You may be earnest. You may be eager. You may even be hard working and intelligent. None of that guarantees success. To achieve success, you have to toot your own horn sometimes. You have to let others know that you have arrived. Last week, The Deacon talked about rattlesnakes using their noise-making appendage to warn potential threats to stay away. Peacocks use their bright plumage to attract a mate. These are examples from natural selection telling you that publicity works. No matter how great you think you are, in order to receive the recognition that you believe you deserve, you sometimes need to speak up.
