Rewards by Awards

There is simply an appreciation of whatever work a person has done in their field. There is an award in every field, as there are three aspects that help in describing the award. The first one is to whom the award is being given? What is the award being given for? As there are several categories in the same field and lastly who is giving the award?

“Thank You” is a very simple and very common gesture done by everyone, it is a way of appreciating people for their help, their presence. But the small gesture always makes the day of the other person no matter how many times he/she might have heard it before. Similarly, the awards given in different fields to different people for their distinguished works make them feel valued and motivate them to do good, better. It also boosts the self-esteem of the person

Award

An award is the most prestigious thing for any person, it is an honour and considered as the token of recognition in excelling at something. The recipient of the award could be a single person, a group of people, or could be an organisation.
