The main thing is to be yourself and not allow people to disturb you to be different, because they want you to be different. You gotta be yourself.

Celebrating creates an atmosphere of recognition and positive energy. Imagine a team winning the World Series without champagne spraying everywhere. And yet companies win all the time and let it go without so much as a high five. Work is too much a part of life not to recognize moments of achievement. Make a big deal out of them.
