Promotion is not the Ultimate Reward of our effort

I am on this side just because, if one's effort is not getting recognised then he himself will feel down or else he might start to think even after doing so many good things, nothing is getting appreciated and there is no promotion or an appraisal for that matter, there will be no driving force for one to work anymore where there is no recognition, why is it always we should do the sacrifice, and try again and again and eventually feel bugged up and gives no option than leaving the organization, hence there should be a balance interms of recognising good work done by the employees and employees should also feel that they are also in the scheme of things...

So, I am not denying the fact that one should not feel let down if one is not being promoted, but one also should not get bogged down if the seniors are denying the good job done by you, its not the place where you want to be if things are not going according to the plan.....
