I Am Very Grateful
If you have read my book Mental Tricks for Endurance Runners and Walkers, then you know that I place a high value on gratitude.
I am also a big advocate for receiving compliments well. For example, suppose that you have set a new personal record in your latest marathon or half marathon.
It is crucial to your future success as an endurance runner or walker that you receive well the compliments that you get about that PR!
I have so much for which to be grateful, and today I want to share with you something very special from my never-ending gratitude list.
That special something is a compliment that I just got for my writing.
EzineArticles.com just recognized me as a “Diamond-level” author for my hundreds of articles posted there.
This is a true honor.
- EzineArticles.com is now the 103rd most popular website in the world, according to Alexa.com, with more than 377,000 expert authors.
- I became a “Platinum-level” author very soon after starting to publish articles there.
- The Platinum level, covering only 15% of EzineArticles authors, represented until earlier this month the best level of author.
- EzineArticles launched the Diamond level earlier this month to identify the top 1% of its authors.
- Less than 1% of EzineArticles authors have been recognized as Diamond-level authors today.
Chris Knight, CEO of EzineArticles, says the following about Diamond-level authors:
- “They meet the absolute best quality requirements.”
- “They have great, top-notch content.”
- “The originality and uniqueness of their content is off the charts.”
- “When you read their articles, you get a genuine nugget of their expertise.”
- “There is real expertise being shared in their articles.”
Thank you, Chris. I am very grateful for this compliment.
